 Traditional medicine has employed Coccinia grandis to treat a variety of ailments. The goal of this study is to look at the phytochemical ingredients and pharmacological effects of fruit extracts from Coccinia grandis. C. grandis fruit extract was tested for antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties in vitro. Alkaloids, carbohydrates, phytosterols, resins, tannins, flavonoids, proteins, and diterpenes were found in the phtyochemical analysis.
