It is well known among traditional medicine practitioners as a curative plant for many diseases and health conditions. The major quassinoid from the plant is eurycomanone, which exhibits many prominent effects on various cancer cell lines. Numerous studies have shown that eurycomanone inhibits cancerous cell growth and encourages cell death both in vitro and in vivo test. Even though analyses of safety and toxicity have been conducted, there is still a substantial knowledge barrier when it comes to providing a scientific foundation for the molecular mechanism as well as intervention strategy in the living people cancer cell.

The usage of these medications are indeed wellestablished, well accepted for their effectiveness, and are acknowledged by national health organizations.2 According to the WHO’s estimates, 85% of people worldwide rely to some extent on herbal remedies for their primary healthcare.3 It is well-established fact that complementary medications, along with traditional and alternative medicines, are used in our healthcare system. This is a compact-documented data that the complementary medicines as well as traditional and complimentary medicines have a well-established usage in our healthcare.
