药用植物治疗的历史与人类本身一样古老。人类与自然药物的探索之间的联系可以追溯到遥远的过去,有来自各种来源的充足证据:书面文件、保存完好的纪念碑,甚至原始植物药物。对药用植物用途的认识是多年来与疾病作斗争的结果,人们学会了从树皮、种子、子实体和植物的其他部分中寻找药物。当代科学已经认识到它们的积极作用,并将一系列植物来源的药物纳入现代药物治疗中,这些药物为古代文明所熟知,并使用了数千年。与药用植物使用相关的思想发展的知识以及意识的演变提高了药剂师和医生应对随着专业服务的传播而出现的挑战的能力,以促进人类的生活。
Healing with medicinal plants is as old as mankind itself. The connection between man and his search for drugs in nature dates from the far past, of which there is ample evidence from various sources: written documents, preserved monuments, and even original plant medicines. Awareness of medicinal plants usage is a result of the many years of struggles against illnesses due to which man learned to pursue drugs in barks, seeds, fruit bodies, and other parts of the plants. Contemporary science has acknowledged their active action, and it has included in modern pharmacotherapy a range of drugs of plant origin, known by ancient civilizations and used throughout the millennia. The knowledge of the development of ideas related to the usage of medicinal plants as well as the evolution of awareness has increased the ability of pharmacists and physicians to respond to the challenges that have emerged with the spreading of professional services in facilitation of man's life.
