Abstract

The metabolic disorder, Diabetes Mellitus (DM), is rapidly growing to bea grave global concern. Despite the development of several synthetic drugs, none of these molecules have been able to effect a total cure. The intake of certain synthetic agents on a continuous basis sometimes results in serious side effects, inducing a persistent demand for non - toxic, inexpensive drugs. Throughout human history, traditional treatments have proven to be highly valued as a medicinal source. From recent studies, herbal extracts have been shown to offer some degree of protection against the diabetes mellitus - related complications. This review discusses some herbal drugs that are effective in the treatment, as well as prevention of complications arising from diabetes.
