Anacyclus pyrethrum L. (Akarkara root), a valuable Ayurvedic remedy, is reported to exhibit various pharmacological activities. Akarkara root was subjected to bioassay-guided fractionation, to isolate its active constituents and discover their potential bioactivities, followed by computational analysis.  

Cell culture (in vitro) experiments show that extracts from Anacyclus pyrethrum have antimicrobial and antioxidant activity.Several animal studies have confirmed the antioxidant activity, along with anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. Animal studies also show that extracts from Anacyclus pyrethrum can act as a painkiller,have neuroprotective effects against seizures in models of epilepsy, and enhance memory. Further studies in male rats also find evidence of a benefit to sperm health (count, viability, and motility and libido

Unfortunately, these effects have only been demonstrated in cell culture or animal experiments; no clinical data exist. Therefore, it is not currently possible to make conclusions about the potential efficacy of Akarkara supplements on human health. The only human data currently available is from a study of 13 women in whom a 12-week treatment with a face cream containing Anacyclus pyrethrum extracts showed potential to protect skin from damage.
