Abstract:This study analyzed the healing and local anti-inflammatory activity of compounds from the aqueous extract of leaves of the plant Leonurus sibiricus L. (rubim) by evaluating the resolution of cutaneous wounds made in Wistar rats. The wounds were treated daily with the extract of L. sibiricus 10% (m/v) in sodium alginate 5% (m/v) to obtain a gel that facilitated its application; sodium alginate 5% (m/v) and Dexpanthenol 42 mg/g were used as negative and positive controls, respectively. The wounds were evaluate… Show more
