Wound healing is defined as a complex process occurring by regeneration of damaged tissues. The normal response to wound healing is concerted sequence of events that begins with an small or big injury. Wound healing agents support the natural healing process, reduce trauma and likelihood of secondary infections and hasten wound closure. Various studies have been done to access the wound healing potentials of plants. Plant extract that have been used in most of those studies have shown comparable efficacy with respect to positive controls used. This study aimed at formulating and preparing a herbal ointment establishing the quality, wound healing efficacy and toxicity profile of the prepared herbal ointment. Methanolic extracts of leaves of the study plan were prepared. Standard test for ointment quality and microbiological stability were done. An experimental controlled study was carried out to determine the efficacy of drug which appears specific colour with determined surfaces. the plants had the fastest rate of wound reduction, and the shortest epithelialization and healing times compared to the other treatment.
