Abstract

Natural phytoconstituents face challenges in exploring the in vivo effect despite having enormous in vitro therapeutic potential because of their low solubility and large complicated structures. To get over these obstacles, the phyto vesicular combination comprising phytoconstituents and phospholipid complex is effective. This review offers details on the phyto-vesicular complex, including information on the types of phytoconstituents and phospholipids, solvents, ratios of phytoconstituents to phospholipids, and evaluation factors. The review compiles information on a few medicinal plants and their active ingredients, from which phytosomes are formulated and evaluated.
