PHARMACOLOGICAL EFFECTS ON THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM INDUCED BY COUMARIN, ISOLATED FROM <I>Hygrophila tyttha</I> LEONARD

This study shows the isolation, identification and pharmacological profile on the central nervous system induced by coumarin (1-2 benzpyrone), molecule obtained from Hygrophila tyttha Leonard (Acanthaceae. Vulgar name:: “amansamachos”). This specie is a medicinal plant used in Colombian traditional...
