Abstract

Medicinal plants have been used from the Vedic era. For thousands of years, they have been used to treat and prevent many types of diseases along with epidemics. Plants play an important role in the development of new drugs. A large number of the plants are also reported to possess many other activities like anti-oxidant, antiinflammatory, anti-insecticidal, anti-parasitic, antibiotic, anti-hemolytic properties, etc. for thousands of years medicinal plants have been used to treat health disorders. In these reviews we gave general review of the medicinal plants.
