Chikungunya virus is an insect-borne virus, of the genus Alphavirus, that is transmitted to humans by virus-carrying Aedes mosquitoes. The virus causes an illness with symptoms similar to dengue fever with an acute febrile phase of the illness which lasts only two to five days. Infection can affect the nervous system or the musculo-skeletal system. General symptoms include fever, headache, maculopapular rash, arthralgia, myalgia, photophobia and lymphadenopathy. Virus isolation provides the most definitive diagnosis. The most effective means of prevention are protection against contact with the disease-carrying mosquitoes and mosquito control. NSAIDs, chloroquine and DNA vaccine are the effective medicines.Keywords

Tamarindus indica (Caesalpiniaceae) bark is used in the treatment of pain traditionally, present work was undertaken to prove this scientifically by using suitable animal screening models as hot plate test and acetic acid induced writing test at the dose of 50 mg/kg, i.p. Petroleum ether extract showed significant increase in reaction time as compared to other extracts. Preliminary phytochemical test showed presence of sterols and triterpenes in the extract; hence these compounds might be responsible for analgesic activity.- Significance of Fluorine in Medicinal Chemistry:A Review
