Abstract Homoeopathy and Ayurveda are different system of medicine whose aim is to treat the patient as a whole and not just the disease state. There are various medicinal plants which are used both in Ayurveda as well as Homoeopathy. Here we describe the various therapeutic action and application of the Medicine Nux Vomica. In Homoeopathy Nux Vomica is a polychrest medicine in which majority of the symptoms correspond in similarity to the commonest and most frequent human diseases. The medicinal properties of the crude drug are made dynamically active by the process of potentization and succussion. In Ayurveda Nux Vomica is categorised under Upavisha, semi poisonous drug and is administered only after undergoing specific purification procedure (Shodana) to mitigate toxicity and enhance therapeutic efficacy. The phytochemical was found like Alkaloids, triterpenes, oils, lipids, phenols, tannins, and flavonoids. In various modern publications, nux-vomica or its alkaloids have been reported to have analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-tumor, anti-snake venom, anti-diarrheal, and hepatoprotective properties. Because of its sharp and easily penetrate in the body properties it is utilized in Indian and other medical systems' formulations for their rapid effect. Despite the toxic effects of this drug, its medicinal property has been made active by the process of drug potentization which is used successfully in the treatment of various medical disorders involving gastrointestinal disorders, sedentary lifestyle disorders its role in managing stress-related disorders, supporting detoxification processes, and enhancing overall vitality.
