Abstract

A tropical and subtropical shrub having comb-shaped fruits that are dentate. The juice of this plant's leaves and flowers is reputed in Ayurveda to have vata dosha-pacifying properties that aid in the treatment of diabetic neuropathy. It is also used to treat bleeding, hematuria, bloody piles, and to relieve dysuria in gonorrhoea. In cases of toothache, diphtheria, tonsillitis, and pharyngitis, leaf decoction is gargled. In the Philippines, leaf decoction is used for enemas, vaginal douches, lotions, and wound and ulcer cleaning. Alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, glycosides, and saponins are all present in aqueous extract. In normal and severely diabetic rats, aqueous leaf extract significantly reduced blood sugar levels and provided protection from hepatotoxic chemicals in the rats. Reduced nutrient absorption is reported to cause antidiabetic action.

Keywords: Abutilon indicum, Chemical constituents, Microscopical characters, Phytochemistry, Ethnobotany.
