In mice, a significant antipyretic effect to endotoxin was recognized. Significant anagesic effects by acetic acid and Randall-Sellito method were recognized. Significant anticonvulsive effects to strychnine and picrotoxin were recognized.

Significant antiedemic effects to carrageenin and histamine were recognized. Dilatation of blood vessels and decrease of blood pressure were noted.
