Currently, traditional plant usage in veterinary medicine have been reported and documented in numerous regions, including Spain, Italy, Argentina, Brazil, and Kenya. The medicinal value of Cassia fistula Linn, also known as Golden Shower, Amaltas, or Indian Laburnum, has been recognised since ancient times. It is a common component of various traditional remedies, including ayurveda, siddha, unani, and Chinese herbal medicine for treatment of various diseases.
