Abstract
The study was carried out to ascertain anti asthmatic, analgesic and anti convulsant activities of the medicinal plant Bryonia laciniosa. Anticonvulsant activity was evaluated by Maximum electroshock induced seizure test. The anti asthmatic activity was estimated by mesenteric mast cell count by Atopic allergy method. Analgesic activity was estimated by Eddy's hot plate and Analgesiometer tests. The results indicated that 70% alcoholic extract of Bryonia laciniosa increased the antiasthmatic activity, analgestic activity and also anticonvulsant activity.
