ABSTRACT: Hesperidin, famously known as Vitamin P and Diosmin are the popular, abundant and inexpensive products obtained from citrus agronomy. With no signs of toxicity, these are largely consumed as a and have a long history of medication. In various studies, conducted on Hesperidin & Diosmin have reported a number of protective potentials such as neuroprotective, cardio protective, hepato protective, anti- inflammatory, antioxidant, lipid lowering, and insulin-sensitizing properties. Despite their enormous remedial potential, the poor aqueous solubility and minimal bioavailability are some major curbs that restrict the utilization of Hesperidin and Diosmin in medical perception. Though, future of medicine belongs to synthesis and usage of nano-dimensioned materials by means of nanotechnology which has been revolutionising the delivery of different constituents with much more precision oriented delivery to the target. This review highlights the in vivo and clinical studies to elucidate the therapeutic and pharmacological properties of Hesperidin & Diosmin that have been reported since 2015, also displays the gaps in our knowledge about both the compounds and the growing influence of nanotechnology to overcome the characteristic limitations which deserves more exploration.

KEYWORDS: Flavonoids, Diosmin, Hesperidin, Nano formulation

INTRODUCTION Since ancient times, mankind have been nanoparticle formulations may act as a exploiting the natural resources for numerous “panacea” which logically incorporated an medicinal purposes. With the track of time, the exemplary model for treating a varied range of inquisitiveness nature of men to explore the chronic disorders with the application of Nano- medicinal benefits of natural resources is being hesperidin/Diosmin through effective drug increased and now becoming a prime focus of delivery process. Numerous in vivo studies have scientific research (1). Flavonoids are amongst addressed about the development of specific- the class of naturally occurring phyto site delivery of Hesperidin & Diosmin with constituents which are found in most of the better permeability, and increased bio- citrus plants, berries, green tea, black tea, red distribution with significant efficient responses. wine, cocoa, etc. Diosmin and Hesperidin are Information’s were collected via electronic the two citric fruit derived flavonoids marketed search by using Science Direct, PubMed, as dietary supplements also as a combination Nature and other internet sources. famously known as micronized purified fraction (Daflon) which act on venous Hesperidin and Diosmin tone, lymphatic vessels, micro-circulation and Diosmin and Hesperidin are flavanone treats . Numerous studies on majorly found in citrus fruits (Family Diosmin and Hesperidin have reported various Rutaceae). Hesperidin (Hesperitin 7- pharmacological activities. New findings have rhamnoglucoside, Hesperitin-7-rutinoside), revealed that Dios has anti-parkinsonism C28H34O15 is a yellow to brown powder with a property and hesperidin has shown anti- molecular weight of 610.56.

Being the secondary plant metabolites, Diosmin can be found in the plants Teucrium flavonoids are not synthesized in the human gnaphalodes, citrus, vetches, hyssop (2). It is body. Therefore they are consumed through the been reported for numerous activities but is dietary sources including fruits (citrus fruits, popularly known to have neuroprotective grapes, pomegranates, berries, and apples), activity (3). Hesperidin is a flavanone , vegetables (broccoli, celery, onions, and leafy obtained in a large amount from the Rutaceae greens), soy products, legumes and beverages family, citrus plants like grapefruit, lemon, (red wine, tea) (8). The intake of the flavonoids orange, tangerine, etc. even from various other varies greatly depending on the availability of plant species such peppermint and welsh onion quality food and dietary habits of the consumer (4,5). Hesperidin has been reported for with different preferences. On global numerous activities such as antioxidant, anti- comparison the intake of flavonoids in Asians is inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-carcinogenic and more than westerns; Europeans and has been reported to protect against DNA Americans. Diosmin and Hesperidin, are not damage, lipid peroxidation. In combination been widely reported for any interactions with with other bioflavonoids like Diosmin, it is drug or food substances. Dietary supplements marketed as Daflon-500mg (Servier) tablets of both the compounds are present in the which contain micronized flavonoids- market for treatment and prevention of hesperidin (50mg) and Diosmin (450mg) to vascular system-related disorders and treat lymphedema and are majorly used to improvement of cardiovascular health. Few treat blood vessel disorders such as varicose studies have shown anti-microbial, anti- veins, venous stasis, and hemorrhoids. In a inflammatory like activities but the mechanism study using animal models, the combination of action for these activities are not been was evaluated by for safety and toxicity studies revealed. Some studies (Table 1 & 2) have also showing good GIT acceptability of the reported the compounds may have a micronized formulation with no genotoxicity, no neuroprotective & cardioprotective activity drug incompatibility or interaction (6). which can help to prevent neuro-degeneration However, Maher and Sabir has investigated the & cardiac-related problems if these flavonoids effect of the Diosmin and Hesperidin are included into daily supplementary combination on hypercholesterolemia and consumption from childhood to the old ones hyperglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes (3).
