Abstract
Hepatic and renal diseases pose significant health challenges worldwide, necessitating the search for safe and effective therapeutic agents. Herbal medicine has received considerable attention recently after proving to be effective in many medical research. Hepatoprotective and nephroprotective properties of some herbs have garnered significant attention in recent years due to their potential in preventing and treating liver and kidney diseases. This comprehensive review summarizes and analyzes the previous scientific studies that have investigated the efficacy of various medicinal plants in protecting the liver and kidneys from damage. The primary objectives of this review are to compile existing research, assess the quality of studies, and identify promising medicinal plants for further investigations. A systematic search of scientific databases yielded a substantial number of studies that explored the hepatoprotective and nephroprotective properties of some medicinal plants. The review categorizes these studies based on the types of plant species used and the methodologies employed, offering insights into the diversity of approaches and outcomes. The findings from this review underscore the importance of continuing research in this area to better understand the potential therapeutic benefits of these medicinal plants. This knowledge may lead to the development of natural pharmaceutical agents that can effectively protect and enhance the function of the liver and kidneys, ultimately contributing to improved healthcare and the management of liver and kidney disorders.
