Abstract
The Ayurvedic medical system is currently quite popular, and as a result, there is a developing demand for diverse medicinal plants used in the production of Ayurvedic medications. Because these plants are grown in different geographical regions, there is a lot of adulteration or substitution in the commercial markets. Studies on plant drugs' histology are critical for understanding adulterants as well as for precise identification. The herb has astringent, diuretic, bitter, invigorating, antiseptic, and fungal properties. Indigenous medical systems including Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani, and homoeopathy employ it for its hepato-protective, anticancer, antidiabetic, antihypertensive, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial qualities. The plant can treat a variety of conditions, including dropsy, jaundice, diarrhoea, dysentery, intermittent fevers, urino-genital system infections, scabies, ulcers, burns, and the common cold. The hepatitis B virus is resistant to its powerful antiviral activities. In addition to having anti-inflammatory and anti-nociceptive actions, it also contains anti-diabetic and anti-lipidemic qualities.
