The present study is intended to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of the methanolic extract of aerial parts of Senna italica ssp micrantha. The anti-inflammatory activity study is carried out by using carrageenan induced rat paw edema. The methanol extract of aerial parts of the Senna italica ssp micrantha is injected at different doses such as 250 and 500 mg/Kg body weight and the effect is compared with standard drug Indomethacin (10mg/Kg). This study established the anti-inflammatory potential of the plant S.italica ssp micrantha. Keywords: Anti-inflammatory, paw edema, S.italica ssp micrantha,
