The aim of the present study was to determine phytochemical analysis and the total alkaloid and flavonoid contents of the leaf part of Clerodendrum inerme plant. The general techniques of medicinal plant extraction are done by soxlet extraction from polar to non polar i.e. petroleum ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate, methanol & aqueous extraction. The ethyl acetate extract has been shown the presence of most of the active components. These extracts were tested for alkaloids, terpenoids, flavonoids, Phenol, Steroids, Diterpene test, Flavonoids, Flavanones, Quinones, coumarins and Tannins. The total alkaloid and flavanoid content is 13.96% and 6.2% respectively. This proves its application in wide areas of medicine.
