Smilax perfoliata is used in treatment of abscesses, skin disorder, sores, swellings, venereal disease and to evaluate antiepileptic activity. The Present investigation has been under taken to evaluate the antiepileptic and antioxidant activity of ethanolic extract of roots of Smilax perfoliata in experimental animals. Induction will be done with electric shock (150mA for 0.2sec) in rats. The experimental study period of 45 days was continuously studied to evaluate the normal behavior parameters such as locomotor activity, motor coordination test, memory of rats and also antioxidant parameters (SOD, GSH, CAT, LP) will be estimated after study period. Hence the further pharmacological activity (Antiepileptic activity) was performed to support the traditional use.
