        abstract = {Diabetic wounds (DW) are a chronic, non-healing wound on the feet of diabetic patients that pose a serious challenge to world health. Around 84% of diabetic patients undergo lower leg amputations. Though numerous topical and systemic drugs have been used to heal the DW, these drugs have led to the emergence and subsequent rapid overgrowth of resistant bacterial strains, side effects and toxicity. Many herbal plants have very important role in wound healing because they promote the natural repair mechanisms. Moringa oleifera (MO) is an important medicinal plant which has an impressive range of medicinal uses including antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, antioxidant and anticancer activities. Recently few researchers reported that MO extracts have effective wound healing property due to the presence of rich flavonoids and vicenin-2.
The main objective of the work was to formulation and Evaluation polyherbal dusting powder. In present study the dusting powder was formulated. The dusting powder was prepared by the mixing all the ingredients together in mortar- pestle. Diabetic wounds pose a significant challenge in healthcare, often leading to complications like infections and amputations. This review explores the formulation and evaluation of polyherbal dusting powder from Moringa oleifera leaf powder, highlighting its potential in promoting diabetic wound healing. The formulation combines Moringa oleifera with other medicinal herbs like Neem, Turmeric, Ajwain and marigold extract leveraging their synergistic antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. The powder's phytochemical profile, including alkaloids, flavonoids, and phenols, contributes to its therapeutic effects. Evaluation studies demonstrate its efficacy in inhibiting pathogens, reducing inflammation, and promoting collagen synthesis, making it a promising adjunctive treatment for diabetic wound healing. This review discusses the formulation, evaluation, and mechanisms of action, providing insights into its clinical relevance and future research directions.},
