Abstract AR
هدفت هذه الدراسة لمعرفة تأثير المستخلص المائي لأوراق نبات إكليل الجبل كمضاد للكآبة من خلال اختبار السباحة الإجبارية لذكور الفئران.
لقد تم إعطاء المستخلص للفئران بجرعتين 15 ملغم \ كغم و 30 ملغم \ كغم يوميا لمدة خمسة أيام متتالية حيث تم مقارنتهما مع عقار الامبرامين مرة و مع مجموعة لم تأخذ أي علاج مرة أخرى.
إن نتائج هذه الدراسة بينت حصول زيادة بالغة الأهمية في وقت السباحة (P<0.01) في حين قل وقت عدم الحركة بنسبة بالغة الأهمية (P<0.01) مما يدل على أن لمستخلص إكليل الجبل تأثير مضاد للكآبة.

Aim of the study: To explore the potential effects of plants in the treatment of depression in comparison to imipramine.

officinalis 30 mg / kg PO, once daily for 5 successive days respectively.
On the fifth day and after thirty minutes of the treatment administration the mice were tested by using the forced swimming test (FST) and the immobility and swimming times were measured. Results : Water extract of R.
officinalis extract (15 mg / kg and 30 mg / kg) high significantly reduced the immobility time and increased the swimming time in the FST in comparison to untreated group, but when compared to imipramine (15mg / kg) it produced similar results.
