Next to modern therapeutic, many plants resulting from the Indian traditional, pharmacopeia are used by the traditional healers as anti-hemorrhoidal remedies. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antihemorrhoidal activity of leaves of Launea procunbence Linn.. This work has focused on the inflammatory aspect of the hemorrhoid. Induction of inflammation was made with kaolin mixed with arabic gum. Solutions of L. procunbence leaves used with preventive measure delay the inflammatory process of hemorrhoidal disease and for curative cure hemorrhoidal inflammation. Also, the antiinflammatory activity observed is due to flavonoids present in leaves of L. procunbence. Preparation of solutions with cool water is more effective than that carried out with the hot water which denatures the active ingredients of the remedy. At the doses used, this remedy is deprived of acute toxicity and can be taken safety by animals . A six times higher solution concentration than that of the traditional healer gives a similar anti-inflammatory response to it. Thus, there is a minimum concentration of L. procunbence leaves solutions from which the anti-inflammatory effect is maximal. The antihemorrhoidal action of leaves of L. procunbence was established and tests on veintonic aspect are in progress
