Abstract
The anti-inflammatory activity of aerial roots of Ficus benghalensis was evaluated by using carrageenan induced paw oedema and cotton pellets induced granuloma in rats. The study was carried out by using 100 and 200 mg/kg doses of the aqueous extract of aerial roots of Ficus benghalensis. The preliminary pharmacological screening of the extract of aerial roots of Ficus benghalensis showed significant dose dependent anti-inflammatory profile.
