Sumario:<i>Buddleia indica</i> Lam. is an ornamental evergreen shrub with few reports concerning its phytoconstituents and biological activities. Herein, the antihyperglycaemic activity of <i>B. indica</i> leaves methanol extract (BIT) was evaluated for the first time using in vitro and in vivo studies. Molecular modelling was performed for its major phytoconstituents that were further subjected to ADME/TOPAKT (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity) prediction. BIT revealed considerable reduction in glucose concentration by 9.93% at 50 μg/mL using 3T3-L1 adipocyte culture. It displayed substantial inhibition versus <i>α</i>-glucosidase and <i>α</i>-amylase with IC<sub>50</sub> 205.2 and 385.06 μg/mL, respectively. In vivo antihyperglycaemic activity of BIT and the ethyl acetate fraction (BIE) was performed using streptozotocin-induced diabetes in rat model. BIT and BIE effectively ameliorate oxidative stress markers in addition to reducing serum blood glucose by 56.08 and 54.00%, respectively, and are associated with a substantial increase in serum insulin by 4.1 and 12.7%, respectively. This can be attributed to its richness with polyphenolic compounds comprising flavonoids, phenolic acids, phenyl propanoids and iridoids. Molecular docking showed that verbascoside and kaempferol displayed the highest fitting within human <i>α</i>-amylase (HA) and human <i>α</i>-glucosidase (HG) active sites, respectively. They showed reasonable pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic and toxicity properties, as revealed by ADME/TOPKAT study.
