Investigation of Origanum compactum essential oil for analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities

Origanum compactum Benth. has been widely used in moroccan traditional medicine for various therapeutic treatments. Belonging to the same genus, O. onites was found to have marked analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities. The aim of this work is to evaluate theses pharmacological properties of the...
