The antipyretic activity of a methanol extract of Cleome viscosa Linn. (CVME) was investigated for its potential on normal body temperature and yeast-induced pyrexia in albino rats. The CVME, at doses of 200, 300, and 400mg/kg BW p.o., showed significant reduction in normal body temperature and yeast-provoked elevated temperature in a dose-dependent manner. The effect also extended upto 5h after the drug administration. The anti-pyretic effect of CVME was comparable to that of paracetamol (150mg/kg p.o.), a standard anti-pyretic agent.
对白花菜(Cleome viscosa Linn.)甲醇提取物(CVME)的解热活性进行了研究,观察其对白化大鼠正常体温及酵母诱导发热的影响。CVME经口服给予剂量为200、300和400mg/kg体重时,能以剂量依赖方式显著降低正常体温及酵母诱发的体温升高。给药后该作用可持续长达5小时。CVME的解热作用与标准解热剂对乙酰氨基酚(口服150mg/kg)相当。
