Anxiety is one of the most common mental disorders, characterized by changes in mood, behavior, somatic function and cognition. There are five major types of anxiety disorders. Benzodiazepines and SSRIs are most commonly employed drugs for the treatment of anxiety. Synthetic drugs available for treatment of anxiety have various adverse effects. Drugs obtained from natural sources are known to cause fewer side effects compared to synthetic drugs despite of same ability to cure disease.

Blood samples were also collected for the biochemical estimation for the Plasma corticosterone levels. They had showed the significant results for both anxiety parameters and biochemical estimation.
