The analgesic effects were evaluated for siddha Single herb Kadukkai Podi in rat using acetic-acid writhing test and hot plate methods. Analgesic activity is found using Acetic acid-induced writhing test in adult male albino mice (25-35 g). The Kadukkai Podi demonstrated a dose-dependent, significant antinociceptive activity in animal models of pain. The analgesic activity shown in models of pain is indicative that siddha single Herb- Kadukkai Podi200mg/kg showed centrally and peripherally mediated antinociceptive properties.
