ABSTRACT
The present article gives a general idea of analgesic, antioxidant and anti- inflammatory and anti diabetic activities of herbal drugs (Cardiospermum halicacabum and Gymnema sylvestre). Despite considerable progress in the treatment by oral agents, search for newer drugs continues because the existing synthetic drugs have several limitations. The herbal drugs with antioxidant, analgesic and anti inflammatory and anti diabetic activities are yet to be commercially formulated as modern medicines, even though they have been acclaimed for their therapeutic properties in the traditional systems of
medicine.
