Butea Monosperma :- Exploration of Its Therapeutic Application’s

Abstract Butea monosperma, commonly known as the "flame of the forest," is a versatile medicinal plant widely recognized in traditional medicine systems such as Ayurveda and Unani for its extensive therapeutic potential. This review explores its pharmacological applications, highlighting its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, hepatoprotective, antioxidant, and anthelmintic activities. These effects are attributed to its rich composition of bioactive compounds, including flavonoids, tannins, alkaloids, and glycosides. Preclinical studies have demonstrated its efficacy in managing conditions like infections, diabetes, liver disorders, and oxidative stress. Additionally, Butea monosperma shows promise as a natural remedy for reproductive health, wound healing, gastrointestinal protection, and even cancer prevention, though these applications warrant further clinical investigation. Despite its traditional significance and growing scientific interest, more research is required to validate its therapeutic benefits, standardize dosages, and explore its synergistic potential with other treatments. This review underscores the need for advancing the pharmacological understanding of Butea monosperma for developing novel, plant-based therapeutic agents.
