C. gynandra cream treated rats showed significantly (P<0.05) higher percentage recovery (70.21%) than the negative control (27.43%) and basal cream (55.8%), indicating that this C. gynandra cream was effectively reducing inflammation symptoms in the ear oedema model in rats. C. gynandra cream also caused no irritation and no changes to the haematological and histopathological parameters in the skin irritation model in rats, suggesting its nontoxic activity for 28 days of exposure.
