T. occidentalis preparations can effectively combat microbial/worm infection. It has antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory properties. In addition to these effects, it has insecticidal, molluscicidal, and nematocidal efficacy against certain pests.During the research period, the formulated ointment demonstrated good consistency and spreadability, homogeneity, pH, non-greasy, and no signs of phase separation. Stability characteristics such as visual appearance, nature, viscosity, and aroma of the prepared ointment revealed no significant modification over the research period.
