Abstract :
The study of antipyretic effect of methanolic extract of leaves of Ficus racemosa Linn. The methanolic extract was tested on Brewer’s yeast-induced pyrexia in Wistar Albino rats. The leaves extract at oral doses of 100mg/kg and 200mg/kg has been used to investigate the Antipyretic potential of leaves extract. Both doses showed significant reduction in body temperature on Brewer’s yeast induced pyrexia when compared to standard (paracetamol 100mg/kg).
