    <abstract language="eng"><em>Psidium guajava Linn.</em> is a cultivated and herbal medicines from tropical and subtropical areas that extensively consume around the world as a food and folk medicine. Recent study showed that extract of <em>P. guajava </em>increased the number platelets in thrombocytopenia mice model. The purpose of this research is to know the profile of liver function after high dose treatment of <em>P. guajava</em> extract in mice. The test of acute toxicity was based on <em>up and down procedure </em>of OECD 425. The 7 female mice was divided into 3 groups. The first group was taken as a control with distillated water treatment, the second group as a test group with 2000 mg/kg b.w of <em>P. guajava</em>. extract and the third group as a test group with 5000 mg/kg b.w of <em>P. guajava</em>. extract treatment. Blood of all mice was collected to analyze biochemical test, including ALT, AST and Total Bilirubin. We found that the observation of biochemical tests by statistical approach is no differences in levels of ALT, AST and Total Bilirubin from control and both treatment groups (p≥ 0.05). The extract of <em>P. guajava</em> is safe for liver function.</abstract>
