All the drugs given 30 min before induction of paw inflammation by Carrageenan. Data was expressed by MEANĀ±SD and percentage (%). SPSS software was used for statistical analysis of data.Rats treated with standard and test drug showed significant difference compared to control group. Aspirin showed significant anti-inflammatory effect compared to Venlafaxine group. Similar results were observed in percentage of inflammation and reduction in percentage of inflammation.
