Antitheilerial Herbal Medicine: A Review
Journal Title: Biotechnology Journal International - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 7
Abstract
The aim of this study is to overview some of the medicinal plants tested for the treatment of theileriosis. Treatment of theileriosis with standard drugs such as parvaquone and buparvaquone is very expensive, and these drugs are not always available in the third world developing countries. Thus, it is desirable to seek for discovery of medicinal plants for treatment of theileriosis.
