Abstract
Most of the available non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are devoid of gastro protective property.Therefore, the search for new anti-inflammatory agents from the huge array of medicinal plant resources is intensifying. Guggul sterones, boswellic acid, curcumin, withaferin-A and and rographolide have been reported to be promising anti-inflammatory agents in animal models. Scientists are of the view that there is acute shortage of leads for developing anti-inflammatory drugs. We need to initiate pending work on these phyto-constituents with emphasis on side effect profile. This paper provides an overview on the recent findings of some plants having anti-inflammatory activity and chemical constituents isolated from them.
