Implication

Comprehensive review reveals extensive therapeutic properties and bioactive phytoconstituents across Hibiscus species, highlighting untapped potential for clinical drug development.

Key Points

To systematically compile and evaluate the traditional ethnobotanical applications, phytochemical composition, and pharmacological activities of the genus Hibiscus to identify future therapeutic research targets.
Literature retrieved across multiple scientific repositories, including PubMed, ScienceDirect, NCBI, SpringerLink, Google Scholar, and ResearchGate, alongside academic theses and dissertations.
Identified and synthesized data on ethnobotanical medical traditions, major bioactive secondary metabolites, and reported pharmacological interventions across genus Hibiscus.
Extracted crude formulations exhibit robust antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, anti-obesity, anti-proliferative, hypolipidemic, hepatoprotective, and nephroprotective bioactivities driven by phytosterols, saponins, glycosides, and anthocyanins.
Pharmacological and phytochemical research is disproportionately concentrated on Hibiscus rosa-sinensis and Hibiscus sabdariffa, leaving many species, such as Hibiscus radiatus and Hibiscus hirtus, largely uncharacterized.
