Abstract: AIM: To observe the antipyretic-analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects of cinnamaldehyde.METHODS: Febrile model of rats was induced by injecting fresh yeast subcutaneously.The pain models were established by acetic acid and hot plate in mice.The mice inflammatory models were applied by dimethylbenzene(auricle smearmethod)and HAc-induced peritoneal capillary permeability, respectively.RESULTS: Cinnamaldehyde depressed the fervescence by yeast effectively in rats, inhibited the pain evidently caused by acetic acid and hot plate in mice.At the same time, it was found that the mouse' s ear edema induced by dimethylbenzene and the capillary permeability were significantly suppressed by cinnamaldehyde.CONCLUSION: Cinnamaldehyde has remarkable antipyretic-analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects.

Key words: cinnamaldehyde, pyretolysis, analgesia, anti-inflammation
