This review aims to comprehensively evaluate its medicinal importance based on scientific literature and traditional knowledge. Tridax procumbens exhibits a plethora of pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, antidiabetic, and wound healing effects. Additionally, it shows promise in the management of various ailments such as arthritis, malaria, dysentery, and skin disorders. The plant's therapeutic efficacy can be attributed to its rich phytochemical profile, which includes flavonoids, alkaloids, phenolics, and terpenoids. Furthermore, studies have elucidated the underlying mechanisms of action for many of its bioactive compounds. Despite its promising medicinal properties, further research is needed to fully understand the pharmacological mechanisms and optimize its therapeutic applications. Tridax procumbens holds immense potential as a valuable source of natural remedies and warrants continued investigation for its integration into modern medicine.
