Abstract
The aqueous extract of Calotropis procera was evaluated for its spasmolytic effect using in vitro trachea smooth muscle chain of Guinea-pig. The extract (50, 100 and 200 μg/ml) showed a dose-dependent relaxant activity probably exhibited through the direct relaxant action on the smooth muscle.
