摘要
Our study aimed at examining the possible anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive effects of dantrolene sodium in rats and mice. The anti-inflammatory effect of dantrolene sodium (2.5, 5 and 10 mg kg(-1)) was investigated and compared with diclofenac sodium (5 mg kg(-1)) using the formalin-, histamine-, and carrageenan-induced paw oedema and cotton pellet granuloma tests. Analgesic effects of dantrolene sodium were evaluated and compared with metamizol (200 mg kg(-1)) in acetic acid-induced writhing and formalin-induced paw licking tests. It was found that dantrolene sodium significantly diminished the nociceptive response in mice, showing at the same time considerable anti-inflammatory properties in rats.
