Reference To Plants Used As Drugs Is Often Found In Old Literature (Atharvaveda, Charak Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, Etc.). In Spite Of The Achievement Of Allopathic Medicine, The Indian Systems Of Medicine Known As Ayurveda, Unani, Siddha, And Naturopathy Still Continue To Provide Medical Care To The Majority Of The Population On Account Of It Being Cheaper And With Almost No Side Effects. The Present Study Has Been Undertaken To Compile And Collate The Scattered Information On Treating Ailments With Inhibition By Infusion, Decoction, And Tincture With Its Compounds.
