SENNA ALATA (L.) ROXB.: A REVIEW
Main Article Content
Abstract
Herbal medicines have played a critical role in treatment and prevention for some diseases. Among a diversity of natural medicinal sources, Senna alata (L.) Roxb. is an outstanding plant broadly distributed in tropical region. It is considered as a well-recognized traditional medicine. This review article focuses to enhance and prepare a comprehensive review on phytochemical, pharmacological and cytotoxicity studies of Senna alata. Based on published scientific data, this plant may suggest a gigantic biological potential of an abundant source of chemical constituents and a variety of bioactivities contributing to therapeutic values.
