Effects of CBE and indomethacin on acetic acid-induced writhing response in mice (n = 6).

Treatment	Number of writhes	% inhibition
80% Tween	32.00 ± 2.71	—
CBE 60 mg/kg	22.00 ± 1.36^*,††	31.25
CBE 125 mg/kg	16.00 ± 0.96^*,†	50.00
CBE 250 mg/kg	15.83 ± 1.25^*,†	50.53
Indomethacin 5 mg/kg	9.50 ± 0.96*	70.31

Results are mean of number of writhes ± S.E.M. *P ≤ 0.001 compared with control group. ^†P 0.01 and ^††P 0.001 compared with indomethacin group.
