Table 1 Effects of control, T. avellanedae aqueous extract (AE, 200 and 400 mg/Kg), and indomethacin (10 mg/Kg) at the rat paw edema induced by carrageenan 1%. The paw volume was measured four times with 1 h intervals between them. It is shown these intervals and the inhibition percentages for each interval.
