| abstract |
A therapeutic composition preferably an anti-inflammatory, analgesic composition, with useful properties in treating neurogenic or neuropathic pains and neurogenic pain syndromes, is prepared from using an extract from a plant of the family Dodonaea in dermatologically acceptable carrier, with or without a dermal absorption enhancer such as eucalyptus oil. The extract is prepared by solvent extraction of the plant matter, either whole or separated into various parts of the plant matter, such as leaves, bark, stems, seeds, roots and flowers. The extract is further purified by winterization and making free from odor before blending with the carrier and optionally with dermal enhancer. |
