Abstract :

Native to tropical America, Plumeria alba is a tiny, laticiferous tree or shrub known as White Champa. Its leaves and stem have been studied for their phytoconstituents, which are used in a number of traditional medicines to treat a variety of illnesses. The plant is mostly grown for its fragrant and beautiful blossoms, which are highly valued for their therapeutic properties. The fruit is edible, the corymbose fascicles are fragrant, and the leaves are arranged lanceolate to oblanceolate with white flowers. Their latex, which is usually harsh and caustic, is often the cause of their therapeutic qualities. Scabies, herpes, and ulcers are treated using latex. Hemostatic qualities are present in seeds. Additionally, its bark is bruised and used to cover hard tumors with plaster. The others, however, have hypotensive, diuretic, cardiotonic, and purgative effects.
Key Words: Herbal medicine, Plumeria alba, latex, cardiotonic
