Abstract

Nature has been an authentic source of medicinal compounds for a long time. Numerous new medications have been identified from natural sources, many of which have been chosen for their application in conventional medicine. Around the world, people have been using a variety of medicinal plants to treat illnesses and for health for many years. The current investigation reveals that Dalbergia sissoo has a good source of medicinal properties, which belongs to the family: of Fabaceae. We discussed phytochemistry in this message and how it can be used to treat a range of illnesses. There are 300 species in the genus, 25 of which are found in India. The 18th-century Swedish brothers Nils and Carl Dalberg are honored by the generic name Dalbergia. The plant is used to treat syphilis, gonorrhea, leprosy, and jaundice, among other conditions. It is also known as a large deciduous multipurpose timber tree. The wood is highly regarded as utility and construction timber due to its strength, durability, and elasticity.
