Different parts of this plant have been reported to possess a variety of biological activities. In Northern India traditional healers use dry fruits of Withania coagulans for the treatment of diabetic patients.

Withania coagulans Dunal. has been shown to exert hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic, free radical scavenging, cardiovascular, central nervous system depressant, hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, wound healing, antitumor, immunosuppressive, cytotoxic, antifungal and antibacterial properties. The twigs are chewed for cleaning of teeth and the smokes of the plant is inhaled for relief in toothache. A large numbers of phytochemicals have been isolated from Withania coagulans which are responsible for various pharmacological action of this plant. The present article aims in projecting a detailed review of the plant regarding its morphology, chemical constituents and pharmacological properties. It has also included therapeutic effects of the whole plant and its extracts and isolated withanolides.

Therapeutic uses :

The fruits is sweet; applied to wounds; used in asthma, biliousness strangury. The seeds are emmenagogue, diuretic; useful in lumbago, ophthalmia; lessen the inflammation of piles.
