In past few decades, this area of research has gained much attention but still need to be done a lot in future. Keeping in mind the therapeutic scope of various vanadium complexes, the present review article is written with the purpose of providing comprehensive overview to those who are interested to dive and explore the possibility for the synthesis of new vanadium complexes as drug with its therapeutic properties. Our study aims at reporting the biphasic behavior of vanadium, a range of vanadium compound with special focus on its anti-diabetic, anti-bacterial, anti-viral, cardiovascular, anticancer, anti-oxidant, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) inhibitor properties and their probable mechanism cited in recent leading literature databases. Analogy of vanadate with phosphate responsible for its interaction with various phosphatase enzymes like ALP, protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP), etc. in the mechanistic point of view is analyzed.
