The aim of this study was to evaluate the analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties of the ethanolic extract of plant leaves in Wistar albino rats. The analgesic activity was evaluated using the hot plate method and acetic acid-induced writhing, and the anti-inflammatory activity was determined using carrageenan-induced paw oedema. The results showed that the Cordia sebestena ethanol extract (100, 200 and 400 mg/kg) exhibited significant analgesic effects in a dose-dependent manner in the two pain models tested. The extract also exhibited significant anti-inflammatory effects in the carrageenan-induced inflammation test. The data obtained support the traditional folklore therapeutic claim about its analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. Nonetheless, further scientific investigation is required to establish its analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties in other experimental models and clinical settings. type: Article type: PeerReviewed format: text language: en identifier: http://repository.uhamka.ac.id/id/eprint/48479/1/European%20Pharmaceutical%20Journal%20Evaluation%20of%20analgesic%20and%20anti-inflammatory%20activities%20of%20ethanolic%20extract%20of%20Cordia%20sebestena%20L..pdf identifier: Hadi Sunaryo, Hadi dan Siska, Siska Evaluation of analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities of ethanolic extract of Cordia sebestena L.
