简介
Objective
To evaluate the antiarthritic activity of Ajuga bracteosa using albino rats.
Methods
The antiarthritic activity of 70% ethanolic extract of Ajuga bracteosa (EEAB) was evaluated against turpentine oil- and formaldehyde–induced acute non immunological and complete freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced chronic immunological arthritis in albino rats.
Results
EEAB showed a significant (P<0.05) and dose dependent inhibitory effect against acute and chronic models of arthritis. EEAB exhibited better antiarthritic activity than the standard aspirin.
Conclusions
EEAB exhibits a significant and promising antiarthritic activity against acute and chronic arthritis and supports the traditional use of Ajuga bracteosa for rheumatism and other inflammatory diseases.
