Chinaberry, Persian Lilac, Indian Lilac / बकाइन, ध्रेक
Melia azedarach • MeliaceaeHydro-methanol extracts of Melia azedarach seeds have shown antipyretic effects, helping to reduce fever in experimental animals.
The antipyretic effect is likely mediated by the modulation of prostaglandin synthesis or central thermoregulatory mechanisms, attributed to compounds like flavonoids and triterpenoids.
Prickly Chaff Flower / अपामार्ग / चिरचिटा
Achyranthes aspera • AmaranthaceaeChirchita possesses antipyretic properties that help in reducing body temperature during fever.
The plant extracts modulate thermoregulatory centers and reduce prostaglandin synthesis, leading to a decrease in elevated body temperature.
Dalbergia sissoo
Dalbergia sissoo • FabaceaeHelps in reducing fever and associated symptoms.
Possesses antipyretic properties, possibly by modulating thermoregulatory centers or inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis, which is often involved in fever pathogenesis.
False Daisy / भृंगराज
Eclipta prostrata • AsteraceaeTraditionally used to reduce fever and help regulate body temperature.
Ethnoveterinary and traditional medicine practices indicate the antipyretic properties of Eclipta prostrata, possibly through its anti-inflammatory compounds that modulate cytokine release and prostaglandin synthesis. Further studies are required to confirm this mechanism in humans.
