Stellaria media has traditionally been used for inflammatory and gastrointestinal ailments. A methanolic extract was phytochemically characterised and tested against piroxicam-induced gastric ulcer in Wistar rats, where it exerted a significant gastroprotective and anti-inflammatory effect, reducing ulcer index and gastric damage.
