Abstract: Herbal medications have gained popularity globally due to their increased bio-efficacy and relatively low adverse effects. The pharmacological properties and pharmacognostic traits of the Fabaceae family plant Bauhinia tomentosa Linn are investigated in this work. Broadly dispersed throughout Oceania, North America, Africa, and Asia. Bauhinia tomentosa L. is a little flowering tree with a variety of medicinal uses. Pharmacological activities of Bauhinia tomentosa L. have a long list of known benefits, including wound healing, nephroprotective, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, hepatoprotective, anti-cancer, diuretic, antioxidant, analgesic, anti-anxiety, anti-catatonic, anti- depressant, anti-diabetic, and anti-pyretic. Various animal models and assays have reported these activities. The plant contains a wide variety of phytochemicals, such as acids, steroids, phenols, coumarins, alkaloids, cyanins, flavonoids, terpenoids, and triterpenoids. The presence of these bioactive compounds contributes to the diverse therapeutic potential of Bauhinia tomentosa L., making it a subject of interest for further exploration in drug development and complementary medicine.
