Tanacetum parthenium (Asteraceae), commonly known as feverfew, is a popular herbal remedy used a prophylactic in the treatment of migraine [88]. Studies have revealed that the action of feverfew is probably mediated by the sesquiterpene lactone parthenolide. Indeed, feverfew and parthenolide produce anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive effects in experimental animals [89]. Parthenolide is a potent inhibitor of the transcription factor NF-kB activation, a key regulator of pro-inflammatory protein production, such as cytokines, COX-2 and inducible nitric oxide synthase [90]. However, a clinical study revealed that feverfew did not provide any benefit in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis [91]. Additional clinical studies must be carried out to explore the feverfew efficacy as an analgesic. [Pg.206]
