Abstract The hydro alcoholic extract of Ipomoea turpethum root was investigated for evaluation of anti-inflammatory activity in rats at a dose 200 and 400 mg/kg in carrageenan-induced paw edema method. Hydro alcoholic extract of Ipomoea turpethum root significantly reduced the migration of neutrophils and monocytes. Results of in vivo activity lead to the conclusion that the hydro alcoholic extract of Ipomoea turpethum root showed predominantly significant activity in dose dependent manner, which is comparable to the standard drug Aspirin.
