India has about 45,000 plant species among which medicinal property has been attributed to several thousands. The traditional Indian system of medicine, the Ayurveda, mentions the use of plants in the treatment of various diseased conditions.

Many herbal preparations are being prescribed as anti-inflammatory and analgesic in the traditional literature.
