Abstract

Wounds are major cause of physical disabilities. Wound healing consists of orderly progression of series of events that establish the integrity of the damaged tissues. Indian Aloe (Aloe Vera) leaves pulp is used for medicinal purposes, including treatment of constipation, colitis, asthma, irritable bowel syndrome, diabetes, peptic ulcer, inflammation, heart burn, stress etc. The present study was undertaken on experimental evaluation of Indian Aloe (Aloe Vera) leaves pulp on wound healing activity through topical route on excision wound model. The activity was compared with standard drug Povidone Iodine ointment (5% w/w). Indian Aloe (Aloe Vera) leaves pulp was found to have better and faster wound healing effect than standard drug Povidone Iodine ointment on excision wound model.
