ABSTRACT
Background: Inflammation is a normal protective response to tissue injury
caused by physical trauma, chemicals, or microbiological substances. The
manifestation clinic of inflammation is pain. Miana leaves (Coleus
atropurpureus Benth.) have chemical contents such as essential oils,
phenols, flavonoids, and polyphenols. Flavonoids can protect lipid
membranes from damage and inhibit cyclooxygenase, which is the first
pathway for the synthesis of pain mediators such as prostaglandins.
Objectives: This study aims to determine the effectiveness of ethanol extract
of Miana leaves (Coleus atropurpureus Benth) (EEML) as analgesic and
anti-inflammatory in rats (Rattus novergicus). Material and Methods: This
study used The Pre-Posttest-Only Control Group Design, twenty male rats
were divided into 5 groups namely negative control, positive control
(diclofenac sodium), treatment with EEML dose of 150, 300, and 600 mg/kg
body weight (BW). Anti-inflammatory was assayed by using the rat hind
paw edema method where the condition of inflammation in rats is induced
by 5% egg white by sub plantar. The measurement of edema in rat feet was
using a caliper every 30 minutes for 5 hours. While The measurement of
analgesic testing was using the nociception test method which evaluates pain
responses such as staggering gait, vocalization, and writhing. The
inflammatory parameters data were analyzed with the one-way anova for the
width of edema foot and kruskal walis for the thickness of edema foot.
While the observing pain response data were analyzed with the Kruskal
Walis test. Results: The ethanol extract of Miana leaves has analgesic anti-
inflammatory activity especially at a dose of 600 mg/kg bw which are non-
significant (p> 0.05) with a positive control group (sodium diclofenac).
Conclusions: This study concluded the potency of Miana leaves as analgetic
anti-inflammatory drugs.
