Abstract
The present study was done to evaluate analgesic activity of methanolic extract of root of Jasmine (Jasminum sambac Linn Aiton). Methanolic extract of root of Jasmine was given in the dose of 200 and 400 mg/kg in Wister albino rats and mice of either sex in tail flick and acetic acid induced writhing method respectively.
