HERBAL PLANTS USED IN DIURETICS
Krishna B. Gawate* and Nirajan S. Tiwari
ABSTRACT
Medicinal plants are an important source of treatment for a variety of disorders, including diuretics. As diuretics, mono- and poly-herbal formulations have been employed. More than 650 mono and poly-herbal formulations in the form of decoction, tincture, pills, and capsules are estimated to be derived from more than 75 clinically used plants. A vast number of research have been conducted to support the diuretic effects of traditional herbal remedies. Herbal medicine has been the most widely administered diuretic drug. They limit electrolyte reabsorption from the nephron lumen, raising osmolarity and increasing water and electrolyte excretion. It's vital to remember that there's a fine line between dietary salt intake and sodium reduction. Diuretics improve urine flow rate and are thus employed in a number of syndromes such as hypertension, tension, cardiovascular difficulties, diabetes mellitus, and infections caused by liver degradation. When compared to allopathic treatments, these plants are fairly protected and free of toxic effects, making them a superior option for treating infections. This work may demonstrate accomplishment in the selection of medicinal plants for conveying their function on diuretics. Keywords: Medicinal plants, Moa, Uses, Types.
