Abstract: Many plants are useful in the traditional medicinal system for treating a wide range of conditions and illnesses. W. Coagulans (Stocks) Dunal (Solanaceae), known as the "Indian cheese maker", is an important medicinal plant classified as Indian or herbal organic plant. It is also known by trade names panir (or paneer) doda. Withania coagulans is a tiny shrub that grows throughout South Asia and the eastern Mediterranean region. It is a widely used medicinal herb in several regions of India and Pakistan. In Ayurvedic medicine, coagulococci are often used to treat diabetes. Withanolides isolated from the aqueous extract of the fruits of the plant have been shown to have excellent antihyperglycemic and antidyslipidemic activities, as well as wound healing, anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, hypolipidemic, and antifungal properties. The current review paper emphasises the importance of taxonomical classification, morphology, phytochemistry, species, botanical name, pharmacological action, and food applications. This extensive data will be very beneficial to researchers in the future.
