Medicinal plants cure many diseases associated with inflammation like cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, cancer and rheumatoid arthritis. The present study was carried out to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of the sample isolated from the ethyl acetate fraction of flowers of Datura stramonium. Anti-inflammatory activity of the sample was determined by HRBC membrane stabilization and Albumin denaturation methods. Anti-oxidant activity of the sample was determined by DPPH assay and ABTS method. The results of the study suggest that the sample isolated from the ethyl acetate fraction possesses anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activity.
