ABSTRACT
\n<\/strong>Free radicals are chemical species with oxygen containing molecules with an uneven number of electrons. They are neutral, unstable and highly reactive.<\/sup> Free radicals normally formed in the body is useful for immune defence and some physiological activities. But in excess, they may be very dangerous and harmful to the human body. To manage these conditions antioxidants, are naturally produced or supplied to the body by food or medicines. Antioxidants are useful to maintain the required quantity of free radicals inside the body and scavenge the extra free radicals. The Homoeopathic medicines have very strong antioxidant properties. This journal highlights the pharmacological action of Homoeopathic medicine Arsenicum album as an antioxidant and Anti-inflammatory.<\/p>\n

Key words<\/strong>: Homoeopathic medicine Arsenicum album, Antioxidant, Anti-inflammatory, Free radicals.<\/p>\n

INTRODUCTION
\n<\/strong>An antioxidant is a molecule capable of inhibiting the oxidation of other molecules. Oxidation reactions can form free radicals and this start chain reaction that damage cells. Increasing free radical production generate oxidative stress, that alter the cell membrane and damage the DNA, carbohydrate, lipids, proteins and lipoproteins in the body. As a result, oxidative stress by free radicals causes cell injury, leading to several diseases such as liver cirrhosis, inflammation, arteriosclerosis, diabetes mellitus, cancer, renal failure, neurodegenerative diseases etc. There are several observations that highlight the pharmacological action of Homoeopathic medicines on free radicals 1,2,5<\/sup>. In\u00a0homeopathy,\u00a0Arsenicum album is a solution prepared by diluting aqueous\u00a0arsenic trioxide\u00a0generally until there is little amounts of Arsenic remaining in individual doses. It is used by homeopaths to treat a range of symptoms according to law of similia.\u00a0Pharmacological action of Arsenicum album is like anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticytotoxic. Arsenicum is thought to occur throughout the universe. It is the 20th<\/sup> most common element in the earth\u2019s crust, having a concentration of 1.8ppm.<\/p>\n
