ABSTRACT:
Medicinal plants have always been used to treat various ailments. Man's search for pharmaceuticals in nature has a long history, as proven by written documents, preserved monuments, and even unique plant treatments. As a result of a few years of sickness, man learnt to seem for medication within the barks, seeds, fruit bodies, and alternative elements of plants. Modern science has identified their active effect, and several plant-derived drugs, known to ancient cultures and used for millennia, have been incorporated into modern pharmacotherapy. Natural products and traditional medicines provide unequalled benefits when it comes to developing novel pharmaceuticals, such as a wealth of clinical experienceand a novel diversity of chemical structures and biological activity.
