The cause and pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease remain unknown and no definite therapy exists until now. The present study was conducted to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects of a herbal preparation (HemoHIM) in colitis induced by 30 mg of trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) in rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 5 groups. Each group was treated with 1 mg of HemoHIM/ml of drinking water, 4 mg of HemoHIM/ml of drinking water, 50 mg of HemoHIM/kg of body weight (i.p. once every other day) or 100 mg/kg of HemoHIM of body weight (i.p. once every other day) from the next day.
