Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 10
Abstract
The term 'pharmacognosy' is derived from two Greekwords 'Pharmacon' means drug and 'gignosco' or 'gnosis' to acquire knowledge means knowledge of drugs. It may be defined as an applied science which deals with the biological, biochemical and economical features of natural drugs and their constituents. Any plant which is used medicinally requires detail study prior to its use because the therapeutic efficacy is absolutely depends on the quality of the plant drug used. The detailed Pharmacognostical study of plant help us to differentiate between closely related species of the same genus or related genera of the samefamily. It is also the first step to standardize a drug which is the need of the day.
