چکیده
Antipyretic effect of petroleum ether and chloroform soluble fractions of ethanol extract of the roots of Vernonia cinerea was investigated. Intraperitoneal administration of boiled milk at a dose 0.5 ml/kg body weight in albino rabbit leads to pyrexia. Intraperitoneal (i.p. route) administration of petroleum ether and chloroform soluble fractions of ethanol extract of the roots of Vernonia cinerea at a dose 250 mg/kg body weight were shown significantly reduce the elevated body temperature of rabbit which was compared with standard aspirin (market product) and solvent used.
