Phyto Pharmacology and Ethnomedical Approach of Terminaliachebula (Kadukkaai): A Review
Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Pharmacy - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 11
Abstract
Traditional medicine can take part a significant task in achieving the goal of ‘Health for All’ and is offered to assisting the integration of traditional medicine with Western medicine all over the world (WHO). As a part of policy to reduce financial trouble on developing countries which spend 40 – 50 % of their total health budget on drugs, WHO currently supports, suggests and endorses the inclusion of herbal drugs in national health care programmes. Herbal drugs are simply available at a price within the reach of an ordinary man and as such are time tested and thus believed to be much safer than modern synthetic drugs. This review highlights the updated information of phyto chemistry, pharmacology, ethno medicine, safety studies and clinical studies on Terminaliachebula. Keywords:Kadukkai, Terminaliachebula, Ethno medicine, Pharmacology, Traditional Medicine.
