ABSTRACT:
The antistress activity of aqueous extract of Centella asiatica. Linn leaves (Umbelliferae) were studied at doses of 100mg and 200mg/kg against tail suspension test. A dose dependent reduction in immobility time was observed in TST. Imipramine (30mg/kg, i.p) was selected as reference standard. The extract also significantly potentiate the Phenobarbitone induced sleeping time in mice. The findings from the present investigation indicates the extract has significant antistress as shown by its effects on different experimentally induced animal models.
