It was a cross-sectional study conducted by the department of pharmacology at a tertiary care teaching hospital over a period of six months at the medicine outpatient department. A prevalidated questionnaire was used to assess the KAP of insulin use. Informed consent was obtained from the patients prior to giving them a questionnaire. Among the 151 responses, 58 were male and 93 were female. Among them, 66% knew about different types of insulin, and 32% knew about different insulin delivery devices. Around 40% of patients were not aware of HbA1c as a monitoring tool. Nearly 48% patients knew the complications of diabetes. Half of the patients were confident about the self-administration of insulin. About 54% patients took insulin for treatment. Among current insulin users, 75% injected insulin at the upper arm, 83% missed insulin doses, 74% had never used a glucometer, and 32% failed to rotate the site. Knowledge and attitude were good in the majority of patients, but practice regarding the use of insulin was poor.

Pharmacological studies have substantiated the hepatoprotective, cardioprotective, and anti-inflammatory potential inherent in extracts derived from various parts of the plant. Notably, bioactive constituents have been identified in every part of the plant, with over one hundred compounds characterized to date. The plant is rich in alkaloids, flavonoids, anthraquinones, vitamins, glycosides, and terpenes, among other things. Furthermore, the discovery of novel chemicals in the plant, such as niazimin A&B and muramoside A&B, has revealed potent hepatoprotective, anticancer, antihypertensive, antioxidant, and nutritional qualities.This current review underscores the traditional and remarkable advantages of Moringa, delving into its pharmacological characteristics, phytopharmaceutical formulations, clinical examinations, toxicity profile, and various other applications. Additionally, it aims to shed light on the plant's commercial and phytopharmaceutical applications with the intention of fostering further research. Despite this comprehensive exploration, the review acknowledges that many conventional uses of Moringa still lack scientific investigation. Consequently, the study advocates for further research to unravel the plant's mechanistic pathways, aiming to pinpoint and isolate the active or synergistic compounds accountable for its medicinal properties.","PeriodicalId":14182,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Analysis","volume":"3 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138996456","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
