Herbal Medicines

Herbal Medicines can broadly be defined as compositions of different preventive and curative herbs, plants, and other natural ingredients used for their scent, flavour, or therapeutic properties.

They are counted among dietary supplements, usually sold as tablets, capsules, powders, teas, extracts, and fresh or dried plants. Herbal medicines are a very popular means to maintain or improve health.

Herbal medicines are rapidly becoming the first choice of treatment for various diseases due to the widespread belief that they are safe with minimal or zero side-effects.

Herbal doctors, also known as Hakeems, prescribe medicines according to the diagnosis.
