Hydroxycitronellal (HC) is a monoterpene present in essential oils of aromatic plants different species, obtained from semisynthesis citronellal, and widely used as fragrance cosmetics. The objective this work was to evaluate the possible anxiolytic-like activity HC its mechanism action using vivo silico methodologies. Swiss male mice (Mus musculus) were treated with (12.5, 25, 50 mg/kg, i.p.) subjected rota rod, elevated plus maze, open field tests. No significant impairments observed rod...
Due to the complex nature of pain and participation physical, cognitive, psychological behavioral aspects, management has several approaches.

Treatment of pain and fever remains an important challenge for modern medicine. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the pharmacological options most often used, but their frequent use exposes patient to serious side effects dangerous drug interactions. In this context, thiophene derivatives promising therapeutic alternatives. study, we evaluated in vivo silico antinociceptive antipyretic properties RMD86, a derivative. At 100 mg/kg, RMD86 induced no significant changes motor...
This is a nonclinical, controlled, and triple-blind study to investigate the effects of codeine-associated geraniol on modulation orofacial nociception its potential central nervous system depressing effect in an animal model. The antinociceptive activity combination with codeine was assessed through following tests: (i) formalin-induced pain, (ii) glutamate-induced (iii) capsaicin-induced pain. Six animals were equally distributed into six groups received treatments, given intraperitoneally...
Lippia pedunculosa Hayek (EOLp) presents tripanocid and amebicid effects. However essential oil needs to be further studied in experimental models of analgesia inflammation once the prevalence pain population generates great suffering disability drugs most often used have undesirable side We also evaluated whether inclusion complex formulation EOLp/β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) was able improve antinociceptive activity EOLp alone. Data were by analysis variance (ANOVA), followed Tukey’s test....
