Pharmacognosy plays a crucial role in the herbal drug industry, ensuring the quality and efficacy of plant-derived medicines. In the realm of marine natural products, isolation methods and purification techniques are pivotal for drug discovery.
Research on marine toxins, recent advances, and challenges like taxonomic identification and chemical screening are areas of focus for scientists striving to unlock the therapeutic potential of marine drugs.
Nutraceuticals, encompassing diverse elements like minerals, vitamins, and herbal extracts, witness ongoing trends and offer promising future prospects. From inorganic mineral supplements to antioxidants and polyunsaturated fatty acids, understanding formulation, standardization, and navigating regulatory aspects, including FSSAI guidelines, is crucial.
Phytopharmaceuticals, ranging from carotenoids and limonoids to vitamins and withanolides, exhibit diverse chemical features and medicinal benefits. Exploring their occurrence, isolation, and characteristic features provides insights into their pharmaceutical utility, contributing to the broader field of natural medicine. Pharmacovigilance of drugs of natural origin involves adherence to WHO and AYUSH guidelines for safety monitoring.
