Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
Hybanthus enneaspermus is commonly used plant in traditional medicine for the various condition such as urinary calculi, cardio protectivity, anti- arrhythmic, urinary tract infection, diarrhoea, dysuria, etc.,In the present study are analgesic and anti allergic activity of petroleum ether and ethanolic extract of aerial part of the plant Hybanthus enneaspermus. The analgesic activity was screened by using hot plate method, tail immersion method, tail flick method. The anti allergic activity was screened by milk induced eosinophilia and leukocytes methods. The ethnaolic extract have more significant activity of analgesic and anti allergic property than the petroleum ether extract Hybanthus enneaspermus. The extract possesses analgesic and anti-allergic activity which may be due to the presence of phytochemical constituents mainly flavonoids and polar constituents.
