Geriatric diseases pose a significant global challenge. The overreliance on allopathic medications has led to the neglect of traditional medicinal plants and their potential side effects. The present study aims to improve the use of local medicinal plants in managing geriatric diseases. Authors have documented the traditional use of 30 local medicinal plants for treating health problems such as hypertension, diabetes, dementia, and osteoporosis. This study also explored the bioactive compounds responsible for their therapeutic properties. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of the sustainable use and conservation of local resources, promoting a holistic approach to the healthcare of older people.
