Online published on 27 November, 2019. Abstract Background Drugs and many traditional medicine compounds have long been used to accelerate the wound healing process. We investigated the effect of honey and nitroglycerin on wound healing. Materials and Method The rats were randomly divided into 4 groups of Control, Nitroglycerin, Honey, and Phenytoin. After the injury of animals in each group, except for the control group, the dressings with related-drugs were opened-up daily. T he wound was accessed on days 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, and when it was completely healed. At the same time, a sample of wound was collected at each stage for histological examination. Results wound healing period in honey and nitro glycerin groups was significantly shorter than control and phenytoin groups. improvement in inflammation and epithelial formation, were not statistically significant. Conclusion It seems that honey and nitroglycerin cause faster wound healing. However, more studies are needed to investigate the effects of these drugs as well as their synergistic use on the wound.
