Thrombosis is a serious health issue linked to various vascular diseases, and research has identified phenolic compounds (PCs) in medicinal plants that may help inhibit blood coagulation and platelet aggregation.
This study focused on surveying natural PCs with antithrombotic and antiplatelet properties, while also evaluating their physical and toxicological characteristics using drug-likeness criteria.
The findings revealed 246 PCs with potential benefits, 125 of which showed non-toxicity and adhered to important pharmaceutical guidelines, highlighting their promise as new candidates for preventing cardiovascular issues.
Sw. (Myrtaceae) is a shrub distributed all over South America and Brazil. Its leaves are traditionally used to treat digestive problems and infections.
