The accessible information was acquired from research articles using a keyword search in Google Scholar, Pub med, Science direct, Springer Link, Wiley and Sci-Hub. The foregoing criteria selected 35 suitable articles from 2000 to 2022 for this study. This research examines Dalbergia sissoo's botanical traits, therapeutic value, and bioactive compounds. This analysis will aid future scientific research as pharmacologists must gather and identify data.
