Bioactive compounds reported in Ceropegia bulbosa are Tetradecanoic acid, Pentadecanoic acid, Heptadecanoic acid, Octadecanoic acid, Ergost-5-en-3-ol, (3 beta, 24R)- Stigmast-5-en-3-ol, Tetracontane, Squalene, Beta-stigmasterol.
Discussion: Traditionally, leaves, tubers, stems, and flowers are used in the treatment of several diseases. Also, various tribal and rural regions have a different identity of Ceropegia bulbosa.
