Table 2 Antinociceptive effect of METS 50, 100 and 150 mg/kg in acetic acid induced abdominal writhing test

Samples	Dose	Number of writhes	% inhibition
1% tween 80	10 ml/kg	60.166 ± 4.167	-
METS	50 mg/kg	30.166 ± 4.070	49.862***
	100 mg/kg	22.833 ± 2.786	62.05***
	150 mg/kg	10.166 ± 2.786	83.103***
Acetylsalicylic acid	100 mg/kg	15.166 ± 3.656	74.793

Results of multiple comparison Dunnetts test in one-way ANOVA; Groups significantly different *** p ≤ 0.001 when compared to positive control group. Percent inhibition was calculated in comparison to control group. F = 187.523, d.f. = 29. ED50 for analgesic effect of METS was 50.68 mg/kg (b.w). ***p ≤ 0.001, **p ≤ 0.01 and *p ≤ 0.05 vs. control group (n = 6).
