The aim of the present study was to look at the antitussive activity of the ethanol extract of Alternanthera sessilis whole plant (EAS) by Sulfur dioxide gas induce model in mice. Results were revealed that the MESI was found to produce significant antitussive activity when compared with control and codeine phosphate in a dose dependent manner. The EAS produced 51.1 and 29.2% inhibition of SO2 induced cough at doses of 250 and 500mg/kg respectively the standard antitussive drug codeine phosphate(10 and 20mg/kg.p.o) showed 45.2 and 25.3 % inhibition respectively.Keywords

Naproxen suffers from the general side effects of NSAIDs, owing to presence of free carboxylic acid group. The study aimed to retard the adverse effects of gastrointestinal origin. Ten prodrugs of Naproxen were synthesized by amidation with N-Substituted-2-chloroacetamide. Purified synthesized prodrugs were characterized by their M.P., TLC, IR, 1H NMR, MS and elemental analysis. The purity of the synthesized prodrugs was monitored by HPLC. Synthesized prodrugs were subjected to acute oral toxicity studies, anti-inflammatory activity and reduced ulcerogenic activity. Marked reduction of ulcerogenic activity and anti-inflammatory activities were obtained in all cases as compared to Naproxen. Among synthesized prodrugs, viz. A-5, A-6 and A-8 showed significant anti-inflammatory activity and A-2 and A-5 showed reduced ulcerogenic activity compared to Naproxen. In acute oral toxicity studies, all synthesized prodrugs were found to be non toxic at dose of 2000 mg/kg.Keywords

Methanolic extracts of Vitex quinata ischolar_mains at 200, 400 and 800 mg/kg and silymarin was prepared and tested for its hepatoprotective effect against paracetamol induced hepatitis in rats. Alteration in the level of biochemical markers of hepatic damage like SGOT, SGPT, ALKP, TPL, CHL, TPTN and ALP were tested in both treated and untreated groups. The methanolic extracts of Vitex quinata ischolar_mains at 200,400 and 800 mg/kg and silymarin showed a significant (P<0.05) decrease in all the elevated SGOT, SGPT, ALKP, TBL, CHL and significant increase (P<0.05) in TPTN and ALB levels produced by the toxicant Paracetamol.
