Abstract: The Neem tree (Azadirachta indica) and the Giloy (Tinospora cordifolia) are widely used medicinal plant known for their antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory effects.In the treatment and prevention of several illnesses, it has been extensively utilized in Chinese, Ayurvedic, and Unani remedies around the globe, particularly in the Indian Subcontinent.As their usage has increased commercially, there is a need to evaluate the risk and safety profiles of these herbs.This project aims to assess the toxicological risk associated with the regular or high dose usage of Neem and Giloy, especially considering their growing popularity in self-medication and commercial formulations.The study also aims to support rational use by drawing attention to reported adverse events and regulatory concerns.Providing a risk summary that informs patients and healthcare providers about risk factors, safe dosage ranges, and contraindications is the aim of carefully reviewing toxicological literature.The ultimate purpose is to encourage the evidence-based use of herbal therapies by bridging the gap between traditional use and modern safety studies.
