ABSTRACT

Anthocleista schweinfurthii is used in the traditional management of gastro-duodenal ulcers; this led us to evaluate the gastro-cytoprotective and healing effects of this plant.

The parameters assessed were mucus production; gastric ulcer index; pH, acid concentration and volume of gastric contents. Sucralfate, cimetidine and ranitidine were used as the reference anti-ulcer drugs. In all cases, oral administration of EAS (250 and 500mg/kg), dose-dependently, prevented gastric lesion formation (p
