Antitussive Efficacy and Safety Profile of Ethyl Acetate Fraction of Terminalia chebula

Figure 2

Effect of EAFTc (ethyl acetate fraction of Terminalia chebula) (125, 250, and 500 mg/kg) on sulphur dioxide gas induced cough by i.p. administration at different time intervals. Number of coughs were counted 5 minutes after cough challenge and expressed as mean ± SEM, obtained in 8 mice in each group. Significant differences from saline control were indicated as ^∗𝑃<0.01 and ^∗∗𝑃<0.001 by Student’s 𝑡-test.
