All throughout the world, turmeric has attracted the interest of scientists and medical specialists. The goal of this study was to pinpoint turmeric methanol extract's immediate proximate and anti-inflammatory activities. A spectrophotometric approach was used to choose the phytochemical screens (both qualitative and quantitative). The recent approach (standard method) was used to research the anti-inflammatory effects and proximate components of turmeric. The qualitative phytochemical screening revealed a substantial amount of turbid alkaloid (++) but no steroid (-). Phenol (151.34±1.01 mg/100g) had the highest concentration (5.83%), while flavonoid (22.30±0.62 mg/100g) had the lowest (5.83%), according to the quantitative screening. The anti-inflammatory activity of the turmeric methanol extract in the treated groups (150, 300, and 600 mg/kg body weight) and the positive control group demonstrated a valuable value (inhibitory values). Paw thickness was also significantly different (reduced) between the 600 mg/kg and positive control groups promising anti-inflammatory effects. These findings demonstrated that inflammation can be treated using turmeric's anti-inflammatory and adjuvant capabilities.
