        abstract = {The Aim of this study is to evaluate the phytochemical components and anti-inflammatory activity of Balanitis ingudi. Balanitis ingudi is a small shrub native to India and is used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. The plant has been used to treat a variety of ailments such as skin diseases, ulcers, burns, coughs, sore throats, and more. The plant is reported to have anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, and diuretic properties, which can help to reduce inflammation and improve the overall health of the body. In evaluation of anti-inflammatory activity, the carrageenan-induced paw edema model in rats was employed. Different doses of the Balanites aegyptiaca extract were administered, and the results demonstrated a dose-dependent reduction in paw edema. Group II, treated with 100 mg/kg, exhibited a notable decrease, while Group III, treated with 200 mg/kg, showed a further reduction, suggesting a potential dose-dependent effect. The positive control, Group IV, treated with Indomethacin, displayed a significant reduction in paw edema, validating the anti-inflammatory potential of the extract.},
