Abstract

The world of living creatures has always been reliant on the plant kingdom for its many therapeutic benefits. Herbal remedies were well-liked because of their many sources and affordable price, which might help with supply issues. The primary ingredients for the medicinal actions of plants are secondary metabolites, which are found in many plant sections. The primary drawback of herbal remedies was incompatibility between patients. In certain instances, the solubility of plant active ingredients is still higher, yet their high molecular weight prevents them from being sufficiently absorbed in the lipid membrane of cells. It exhibits extremely low absorption and quick elimination as a result. Therefore, in order to obtain the therapeutic benefits, it becomes necessary to provide it frequently at a high dose, which frequently deviates from patient compliance. One application of nanotechnology is to reduce toxicity and boost bioavailability. Enhancements in solubility, bioavailability, pharmacological action, and stability of novel herbal formulations can improve the distribution of macrophages in tissues, extend delivery, and prevent chemical and physical degradation if herbal drugs can be delivered at the nanoscale.
