Then, to assess the anti-nociceptive effects of the extract, we used Writhing and Tail-flick tests. Results: The results of the study showed that the extract significantly inhibited the number of contractions induced by acetic acid. The results of Tail-flick test showed that the delay time of tail removal after injection in all groups was significantly associated with latency of tail withdrawal before injection (P <0.05). The extract group with a dose of 250 (mg / kg body weight) showed more analgesic effects than other doses of the extract and the mean delay in this group was significantly higher than other doses (P <0.05).
