Abstract

The study was designed to evaluate the phytochemical screening and anti-inflammatory activity of methanolic extract of Acalypha indica L.leaves in HRBC membrane stabilization. The methanolic extract showed significant inhibition by using Diclofenac sodium as a standard drug at doses of 125, 250, 500 and 1000mg/mL and showed a dose dependent inhibition hemolysis of erythrocyte induced by hypotonic solution.
