Abstract

Pogostemon cablin (Patchouli) is a significant herb of Lamiaceae family with broad range of therapeutic advantages and it is extensively used in cosmetics as well as pharmaceutical industries. P. cablin owing to its tremendous commercial, economic as well as potential medicinal properties, it has been grown in various parts of Southeast Asia and China for more than 1000 years. P. cablin is a native plant of Philippine and prefers tropical and sub-tropical countries for its optimum growth and production. Understanding biology as well as chemistry of any plant is very necessary for its relevant uses in any field. Therefore, this chapter in addition to biological and pharmacological applications, provides a brief description of chemical composition as well as nutritive status of P. cablin. There are approximately one 140 beneficial compounds discovered so far from P. cablin, some of the top-notch compound which are responsible for its medicinal values includes terpenoids, flavonoids, alcohol and several glycosides along with various phytochemical compounds. Moreover, in this chapter we will discuss major advantageous application of P. cablin in detail. P. cablin is used for the treatment of colds, fever, emetic problems, diarrhea, headache, abdominal pain as well as it is used to fight against various insect pests and snake bites. Furthermore, many other biological aspects regarding P. cablin involves defensive action against oxidative damages instigated by certain xenobiotics, exerts anti-analgesic actions, anti-platelet, aphrodisiac, anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombotic, anti-depressant, anti-emetic along with antimutagenic as well as cytotoxic and fibrinolytic capabilities. In aromatherapy, P. cablin is reported to relieve against depression and have potential role to control nerves, stress and appetite as well as significantly improve the libido of exposed individuals.
