Abstract
Introduction: In recent years, extensive research has been done worldwide for crop waste management so that its various components can be used effectively in various industries. Numerous on- and off-field strategies exist for dealing with RS. The health and environmental concerns render in-field management techniques such as burning, mulching, inclusion, etc., impractical. The second largest volume of agricultural waste is produced when it is burned, which poses health problems due to air pollution and harms organic matter by causing significant nutrient losses.
 Aim: Since Rice Straw (RS) contains a lot of cellulose, researchers are interested in exploring its possible use in the pharmaceutical sector. The chemical nature of RS and the many therapeutic uses of RS-derived biomaterial are the main topics of this review. Pharmaceutical uses include using RS-derived biomaterial as a drug carrier, excipient, packaging material, cosmetic ingredient, and developing other products with added value.
