Abstract :
Background & Aim: The current study was performed to evaluate the ethnobotanical uses, chemical constituents of Astragalus graveolensBuch. Leaves and their pharmacological activities through literature search. The preliminary phyto-evaluation of this plant has produced a number of bioactive chemicals, some of which have been proven to have antibacterial and cytotoxic potential as a result of its traditional therapeutic applications.Experimental: We conducted a survey in diverse databases (such as Google scholar, Scopus, and Web of Science, etc.) and professional websites with a key word related to our study. Firstly, we evaluated the traditional utilization of Astragalus graveolensBuch. and then the pharmacological studies.Results: Astragalus graveolens has a number of health advantages, including the ability to treat toothaches, strengthen tooth roots, nourish and treat chest infections, kidney, stomach and toothaches.
