The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Silymarin works to reduce oxidative stress, improve pulmoary function and quality of life in stable COPD patients. It will also learn about the safety of drug Silymarin. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does drug Silymarin reduce oxidative stress, improve pulmonary function and quality of life in stable COPD patients? What medical problems do participants have when taking drug Silymarin? Researchers will compare Silymarin to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if Silymarin works to treat COPD. Participants will: Take Silymarin or a placebo thrice daily every day for 3 months. Baseline and 3 months after plasma Malondealdehyde, erythrocyte Glutathione , FEV1, SGRQ-C score will be monitored.
