Swertiaside is primarily used in traditional medicine for its hepatoprotective properties, helping to protect the liver from damage caused by toxins and supporting liver function. It has demonstrated anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities, making it valuable in formulations aimed at reducing oxidative stress and inflammation-related conditions. Research suggests potential antidiabetic effects, as it may help lower blood glucose levels by enhancing insulin sensitivity. It is also investigated for its ability to support gastrointestinal health, particularly in managing digestive disorders due to its bitter tonic properties. Ongoing studies explore its role in natural therapeutics for metabolic and liver-related diseases.
