A Comprehensive Analysis of Herbal Medicine's Possible Use in The Management of Chronic Kidney Disease

with Anil Kumar, Govind Sharma
2025

This is a systematic review on herbal medicine's potential role in managing CKD, a progressive condition that poses much health concern worldwide. It explores medicinal plants, including Phyllanthus niruri, Salvia miltiorrhiza, and Withania somnifera, that exhibit nephroprotective properties, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fibrotic properties. These therapies have been designed to target the mechanisms of their action through the modulation and reduction of fibrosis with a resultant increase in kidney function and slowing of the progression of CKD. While such encouraging preclinical and clinical data are available, clinical application challenges include standardisation, herb-drug interaction, and regulatory restrictions. The review strongly focuses on this combination of these natural remedies to benefit synergistically with conventional treatments, reduce cost in treatment delivery, and have sustainable solutions for delivering healthcare. Since this analysis now creates a path toward standard protocols and potential further research, more holistic CKD care is approached.

Antimicrobial, Anti-Inflammatory and Wound Healing Activity of Polyherbal Formulation

with Chandra Prakash Dwivedi, Govind Sharma
2025

The antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and wound-recovery houses of a polyherbal methanolic extract (PHME) made from Argemone mexicana, Datura stramonium, and Plumbago zeylanica are tested in this study. Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa had been the 4 bacterial traces towards which the antibacterial pastime of PHME became assessed in vitro the use of techniques such as broth dilution and agar well diffusion. In assessment to the diverse plant extracts, the consequences indicated that PHME had the bottom minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and the widest zones of inhibition, indicating its higher antibacterial effectiveness. According to the examine, PHME's antibacterial performance became on par with that of the commonplace antibiotic, Ofloxacin, particularly whilst it came to Staphylococcus aureus. The antibacterial pastime of PHME become drastically extra than that of the separate extracts, in line with statistical analysis. These consequences mean that PHME has wonderful healing promise alternatively for traditional antibiotics, with potential makes use of in wound healing and the treatment of bacterial infections. To completely inspect its healing variety and medical utility, greater research is needed.
