Abstract

In traditional medicine most of the diseases have been treated by administration of plant or plant product. Neem (Azadirachta indica ) is the most useful traditional medicinal plant in India. Each part of the neem tree has some medicinal property. During the last five decades, apart from the chemistry of the neem compounds, considerable progress has been achieved regarding the biological activity and medicinal applications of neem.
