Effects of Extract of Verlot on an Experimental Model of Osteoarthritis.

The aim of this study was to analyze the analgesic potential of extract (EHA) as an alternative to osteoarthritis (OA) treatment. Thus, the extract was initially evaluated by the cyclooxygenase inhibition test. The analgesic effect of the extract, in vivo, was also verified in a model of OA induced by sodium monoiodoacetate (2 mg).
