Taxifolin is a potent plant flavonoid. The main sources of taxifolin include onions, French maritime bark, tamarind seeds, and milk thistle and are also commercially available in semisynthetic forms. The main pharmacological actions of taxifolin are antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, and even anticancer actions. Hence, an attempt was taken to review the pharmacological actions of taxifolin.
