Researchers investigated the potential anti-inflammatory effects of Pergularia daemia in temporal lobe epilepsy, a drug-resistant form of epilepsy. P. daemia is traditionally used in Cameroon to treat various ailments. There are currently no scientific reports on its anti-inflammatory activity during epileptogenesis. The study found that P. daemia extract reduced inflammation and may have antiepileptic effects. This suggests that P. daemia could be a potential source of new antiepileptic drugs and warrants further investigation.
