Abstract

The effect of different extract from Bergenia ligulata Wall in yeast induced fever in albino rats of wistar strain were assessed for antipyretic activity. Plant extracts were administered at the doses of 300 & 500 mg/kg body weight. The standard drug used was paracetamol (200mg/kg.p.o). Rectal temperature of experimental animals was recorded at a time interval of 1hrs, 2hrs, 3hrs, 4hrs & 5hrs after drug administration for evaluation of antipyretic activity. The ethanolic extract of roots and rhizomes of Bergenia ligulata Wall at a dose of (500mg/kg.p.o) decreased the yeast induced fever in experimental animals.
