Abstract

This study investigates the wound healing properties of Cantharanthus roseus (Madagascar periwinkle) leaf extract in Wistar rats. The experiment involved inducing standardized wounds on the rats, with a subsequent application of the C. roseus leaf extract to evaluate its impact on the rate and quality of wound healing. The findings provide insights into the potential therapeutic benefits of this botanical extract in promoting accelerated wound recovery.
