Abstract

Dalbergia sisso (Roxb.) and Caralluma tuberculata   (N.E.Br.) are extremely useful medicinal plant species distributed in various parts of the world including Pakistan. Traditionally Pakistani people use these plants to treat Diabetes mellitus, arthritis, obesity, and certain cardiovascular problems. Folks are using these medicinal plants abundantly. There is a dire need to perform   scientific screening of these valuable plants. In order to establish   evidence based resource regarding the ethno botanical use of these herbs present studies were carried out. The diverse phytopharmacological activities comprising of in-vitro antidiabetic, antioxidant, anticancer, phytotoxic, insecticidal and brine shrimp activities were carried out. Promising antioxidant and in vitro antidiabetic actions were explored. Both species   were found safe and effective with considerable anti- oxidant and antidiabetic actions. Further in depth in vivo   research is required to validate the safe and effective use   of these valuable traditional herbal therapeutic alternatives.
