Nimbin is the active compound from the neem leaf extract which is now being tested in silico as a potential remedy against tuberculosis and dengue virus. Recent studies have shown that the drug interacts with NS2B-NS3 protease from dengue virus and fatty acid synthase of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Nimbin can also be used as a pesticide.
