Owing to its inadequate stabilisation and considerable conformation rigidity, the utility of AC-Res as a medication is limited.
Objective: The current review article outlined the structure of AC-Res, their methods of activity, and the latest technological progress in the administration of these molecules.
The concomitant use of herbal remedies in conjunction with conventional cardiac medications has increased significantly in recent years, primarily due to improvements in the quality standards of herbal medicines and the pervasive belief that natural products pose no harm to the human body. Contrary to this belief, multiple phytoconstituents found in herbal products have the potential to interact with conventional cardiac drugs, potentially resulting in severe adverse effects.
Objective: This review aimed to elucidate the intricacies of these interactions highlighting herbal medications that interact with established pharmaceuticals used for the treatment of cardiovascular disorders.
