Abstract

Tinospora cordifolia is a climbing deciduous shrub. It is prevalent throughout the tropical regions of India, China, Bangladesh, Myanmar, and Sri Lanka. This plant is a member of the Menispermaceae family. It is a well-known medicinal herb that is utilised in a number of conventional treatments for a wide range of illnesses. Both Amrita and Guduchi are prevalent names. It is recognised as an essential medicinal plant in the Indian system of medicine (ISM) and has been used historically to treat a broad variety of maladies, including diabetes, leprosy, skin disorders, diarrhoea, and fever. The phytochemistry and pharmacological activity of Tinospora cordifolia are determined by the plant's alkaloids, terpenoids, lignans, steroids, and other chemical constituents. Additionally, it is hepatoprotective, antioxidant, anti-hyperglycemic, and anti-neoplastic.
