— Experiments with male mice (28–32 g) of the CFLP strain showed that cinnarizine in doses of 2.5, 5.0 or 10.0 mg kg −1 significantly inhibited the extent of ear oedema induced by croton oil, capsaicin or dithranol, in a dose‐dependent manner. In rats of the Wistar strain, oedema was induced in the hind paw by subplantar injection of carrageenin, and simultaneously by the application of croton oil to the inner surface of the ear. Preliminary cinnarizine treatment (5, 10 or 20 mg kg −1 ) inhibited the development of both types of oedema, to a statistically significant extent, in a dose‐dependent manner.
