The cytoprotective effect of Aloe vera L. "aloe" was evaluated in rats with gastric damage caused by indomethacin. 50 rats, 4 months old and 250 g of average weight, were used. The animals were distributed in a group of ten for each of the treatments. Group 1 (control) received SSF (0.9%), group 2 (control) received indomethacin (20 mg / kg), and problem groups (3, 4, and 5) received one, two, and three doses of aloe (50 mg / kg), respectively. The first dose was administered 4 hours before indomethacin and the other doses in 4-hour successions. After one hour they were anesthetized and euthanized. In the levels of macroscopic and microscopic gastric lesions, significant differences were found between the control group (p <0.001) and the problem groups. In the groups treated with A. vera L. (p> 0.05), no significant differences were found. In our experimental conditions the application of an extract of aloe in rats with gastric damage showed histoprotective effect.
