The major component present in the plant’s various parts is lupeol, which has a broad pharmacological potential. The phytoconstituents or the phytochemicals along with biological activities contribute for the medicinal importance of this plant. This review paper tends to cover information available on various studies of medicinal values and chemical constituents of S. ciliate Nees.
