Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 5
Abstract
Plants have certain biologically active molecules and many of the present drug discoveries are based on these molecules found in the plants used in traditional system of medicine. In this review paper 20 plants (Emblica officinalis Linn., Andrographis paniculata (Burm.f.)Nees, Curcuma domestica Valet, Trigonella foenumgraecum Linn., Camellia sinensis assamica (Masters) Kitomura, Centella asiatica (L.)Urban, Mangifera indica Linn., Hypericum perforatum L., Cymbopogon citratus(DC)Staf, Vitex negundo Linn., Hemidesmus indicus R.Br., Catharanthus roseus(Linn.)G.Don, Euphorbia hirta Linn., Prunus persica (Linn.)Stokes, Oxalis corniculata Linn., Withania somnifera, Tinospora cordifolia (Willd.)
