RETURN TO NATURE FOR EFFICACIOUS AND SAFER MEDICINAL PROSPECTS: A REVIEW
Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 9
Abstract
Traditional medicine also known as indigenous or folk medicine comprises medical knowledge systems that developed over generations within various societies before the era of modern medicine. We have gone through literature review published in online journals and related websites, then after study of literatures we found that the herbal industry shares about US $100 billion with good growth potential. The World Bank report trade in medicinal plants, botanical drugs products and raw materials is growing at annual growth rate of about 15% (WHO). Within the European community botanical medicine represents an import share of the pharmaceutical market. Natural products compounds discovered from medicinal plants (and their analogues thereof) have provided numerous clinically useful drugs in the treatment of chronic and or acute disease and still remain as an essential component in the search for new medicines. So, these traditionally used plants can be explored effectively in order to find new chemical entity for treatment of chronic disease. Hence the small but having greater future perspectives review was performed systematically.
