Promising effect of Geranium robertianum L. leaves and Aloe vera gel powder on Aspirin(®)-induced gastric ulcers in Wistar rats: anxiolytic behavioural effect, antioxidant activity, and protective pathways.

The effectiveness of traditional drugs for gastric ulcers (GU) is limited, so researchers looked at natural remedies such as Aloe vera and Geranium robertianum. They assessed their ability to protect against Aspirin®-induced GU in rats. The results suggest that these herbal extracts may be promising alternatives for the treatment of GU.
