Abstract:

Some pharmacological effects of the ethanol extract of Salvia transsylvanica (Schur ex Griseb) were experimentally investigated. The tested extract of the plant proved to be relatively nontoxic (LD50 = 4.437 g/kg b.wt.). The extract induced significant analgesic, antipyretic, antiepileptic, antiinflammatory, antiulcerogenic, as well as tranquillizing activities, besides increasing the bleeding time and exhibiting no central skeletal muscle relaxant effect compared with control groups and standard drugs.
