Reputable Unani scholars have described the pharmacological properties of Aqarqarha as abortifacient, anti-inflammatory, sialagogue, tonic, gastrostis, inflammation, lethargy, stimulant, rubefacient, cordial, antidepressant, immune-stimulating, memory-enhancing, antioxidant, and interacting with hormones in ancient literature.The wild species Anacyclus pyrethrum, or A. pyrethrum, is a member of the Asteraceae family and is utilized in traditional medicine.It is a little, hard, fusiform root that is around the size of a little finger. At the top, it occasionally has leaf remnants, and it is covered in few or no hair-like rootlets. The exterior of the root is brownish, and it has deep longitudinal fissures.Ayurvedic medicine uses A. pyrethrum as an immunomodulator and adaptogen. The herb is used as an aphrodisiac, antidiabetic, antioxidant, and to treat heart conditions, asthma, throat issues, carminative, stomach issues, arthritis, sciatica, diuretic, and tooth worm infestation, muscle relaxant, aphrodisiacs, hiccoughs, epilepsy, headaches, pains, brain tonic, anti-rheumatism, anticonvulsant, and other human-related illnesses. This review aims to illustrate the evolution of medicine from galenic to genomic, emphasizing the significance and promise of ayurveda.
