Parkia speciosa (P. speciosa) is traditionally consumed medicinal plant for liver disease, oedema, kidney inflammation, diabetes and as anthelmintic. Recently, there are many reports on antioxidant, antidiabetic, anti-hypertensive, antitumor, antiulcer and antimicrobial potential of various parts of this plant. Furthermore, the potential effect of this plant on cardiovascular system has been reported. This present review aimed to collect the scattered information on pharmacological effect of this plant. A number of possible future studies on the potential of P. speciosa related to pharmaceutical product could be successfully conducted with the details provided.
