Stellaria media, chickweed, is cool-season annual plant under the family caryophyllaceae native to Europe, but naturalized in many parts of North America and Asia. In the present investigation anti-fungal and analgesic effect of the plant extract of Stellaria media was studied using disc diffusion method as anti-fungal test model and hot plate in mice as the analgesic model. In the present investigation, it was found that the ethanolic extract of Stellaria media exhibits antifungal activity against Trychophyton rubrum and Candida albicans. The ethanolic extract of the plant forms an approximately 16 mm of zone of inhibition. In the analgesic model it was observed that 500mg/kg body weight of the ethanolic extract of Stellaria media possess a potent analgesic property which is slightly higher than the 10mg/kg body weight of diclofenac sodium. The present study evaluates the scope of Stellaria media as analgesic and antifungal agent.
