Nidhi Dhama* and Dr. Nitin Kumar

ABSTRACT

Derivatives of Benzimidazole have been found to reveal assorted biological activities for example, anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal, anti-viral, antitumor and anti-hypertensive. Benzimidazole and its imitative have been showing promising activity in the treatment of many diseases. For these reasons, they have much interest as important pharmacophores and fortunate structure. Many benzimidazole based drugs have been broadly used in the treatment center to treat different types of diseases with high therapeutic potential. So this review article shows that the derivatives of benzimidazole are excellently effective compounds and a great number of reviews available for biochemical and biological studies conformed that their molecules are useful against a wide range of micro-organisms.

Keywords: Benzimidazole, Anthelmintic activity, Anti-inflammatory activity.
