Abstract

Urtica dioica, commonly known as stinging nettle, is a medicinal plant with a broad geographic distribution and a wide range of therapeutic properties. Its rich phytochemical profile—including essential vitamins, minerals, flavonoids, and chlorophyll—contributes to its hemostatic, anti-inflammatory, diuretic, antianemic, immunomodulatory, and blood sugar-lowering activities. Both traditional healing systems and modern medicine utilize nettle for managing conditions such as anemia, hemorrhage, joint disorders, dermatological issues, and as an adjunct in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. It is available in multiple pharmaceutical forms, including decoctions, infusions, fresh juice, extracts, and herbal blends. Despite its demonstrated therapeutic value, the use of stinging nettle requires caution due to specific contraindications. This review highlights the latest findings regarding the medicinal applications of Urtica dioica in clinical and traditional practice.
