Antigonon leptopus, a member of the Polygonaceae family, is a strong and fast-growing vine that can grow up to 15 meters long. Its unique heart-shaped leaves and terminal clusters of pink, red, or white flowers have earned it the nicknames "Coral Vine" and "Mexican Creeper." The vine's capacity to flourish in a variety of temperatures, from tropical to subtropical, has helped it gain global popularity as an ornamental and landscaping plant. In this review, a comprehensive literature survey was conducted to update information on A.leptopus botanical description, phytochemistry, pharmacological properties and their ecological importance. The plant is found to contain a diverse range of phytochemicals. Alkaloids, phenolic chemicals, saponins, triterpenoids, and glycosides are found in various regions of the plant. The plant is used ethnomedicinally in many parts of the world to treat a variety of diseases, including pain, coughing, diabetes, dermatological disorders, flu, and stomach ache. Pharmacological characteristics are being explored in several areas of the plant. The plant is known to have antibacterial, antioxidant, hepatoprotective, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, cytotoxic, and antidiabetic properties. This broad review also includes the ecological maintenance as larvicide, anti-helmintic and act as eco-friendly pesticides. From this gathered information the literature study reveals the potential ethnomedicinal utilization of Antigonon leptopus as well as the plant's potential use in the development of pharmaceutical products for treating diseases.
