Paracetamol (acetaminophen) is one of the most popular over-the-counter analgesic and antipyretic drugs. Paracetamol is available in different dosage forms: tablet, capsules, drops, elixirs, suspensions and suppositories. Dosage forms of paracetamol and its combinations with other drugs have been listed in various pharmacopoeias. The combination of paracetamol with dipyrone is used as an antipy...

The reason of this study was to evaluate the action of oxidative stress (OS) induced with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on the analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects of aspirin in 7-14 day old chicks. H2O2 at 0.5 % v/v in drinking water induced OS in age 7-14 of the chicks when given freshly. The analgesic Median Effective Dose (ED50) and acute Median Lethal Dose (LD50) values of aspir...

Objective: The investigation was undertaken to explore the anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic activities of Rubus ellipticus. Materials and Methods: The methanolic leaf extract (up to 2000 mg/kg b. wt.) of R. ellipticus was used to observe acute toxicity. Anti-inflammatory activity was evaluated using carrageenan induced paw edema in rats and croton oil induced ear edema in mice. Anal...

In this study, the analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects of the methanolic extract obtained from the leaves of Thunbergia coccinea Wall were investigated. Analgesic effect of MTC was evaluated by acetic acid –induced writhing, hot plate and tail flick method. Antipyretic activity of MTC was evaluated by yeast –induced hyperpyrexia in rats. The antiinflammatory activity was studie...

The aqueous extract of Parsley ( Petroselinum crispum ) were investigated for anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic activity at the doses of 2 , 5 , and 10 g/kg, of body weight. The experimental paradigms used were carrageenan, dextran, histamine induced pedal edema and cotton pellet induced granuloma for anti-inflammatory activity, while hot plate and acetic acid induced writhing method...

The study was designed to investigate analgesic and antipyretic activities of petroleum ether and alcohol extracts of Centratherum anthelminticum (L) Kuntze (family: Asteraceae) seeds (100 and 200 mg/kg, p.o.) in brewer's yeast-induced fever model in rats, acetic acid-induced writhing and Eddy's hot plate methods in mice. Both petroleum ether and alcohol extracts showed significant decrease in ...

OBJECTIVE The main objectives of this study were to qualitatively evaluate the profile of phytochemical constituents present in methanolic extract of Microcos paniculata bark (BME) and fruit (FME), as well as to evaluate their anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic activities. METHODS Phytochemical constituents of BME and FME were determined by different qualitative tests such as Molisc...

BACKGROUND In the year 2000, the South Korean government introduced a program for separation of drug prescribing and dispensing. The goals of the program are to reduce misuse of drugs and to contain drug expenditures. The government also designated exception regions for the program to reduce the inconvenience for people who reside in areas with a shortage of health care resources. However, acco...
