Abstract
Abstract:
Different formulations of ashwagandha have been utilized for the treatment of neurological disorders. The present manuscript aimed to discuss various roles of Withaniasomnifera, (ashwagandha) in the treatment of neurological disorders. In the literature, several neuro-protective phyto-constituents of shwagandha have been reported, with important pharmacological effects in neurological and brain disorders such as anxiety, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and chizophrenia. Preclinical studies, clinical trials, and patents indicate that Withaniasomnifera has a wide range of potential as a neuroprotective in several neurological disorders. After a complete literature survey, it can be concluded that Withaniasomnifera has significant potential to treat neurological disorders.
