According to the WHO in 2011, 8 million people in the world each year died because of hypertension, whereas the prevalence in Indonesia was quite high at 29.8% in 2007. Various herbs can be used as an alternative for treat hypertension because it is safer and relatively had no side effect. We examined the antihypertensive activity from 4 combination doses of roselle flowers, chayote fruits, and aloe vera leaves. The antihypertensive activity was tested on white male rats Sprague-dawley strain induced adrenaline 1.2 pg/kgintraperitoneally with NonĀ¬invasive Blood Pressure Volume Pressure Recording methods. The results showed that the activity of systole and diastole blood pressure dose 1, dose 3 and dose 4 has a significant difference to the negative control, and did not have a significant difference to the positive control. Dose of antihypertensive activity that had the best activity was dose 3 with an average percentage activity in decrease systole and diastole blood pressure respectively by 18.31% and 23.19%.
