Medicinal plants offer a promising solution to growing concerns about antibiotic resistance and environmental harm caused by synthetic drugs. These plants produce bioactive compounds with proven analgesic, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties, effectively addressing various animal ailments. Scientific research combined with evidence-based plant-based medicines opens avenues for safer, more efficient treatments.

To evaluate their efficacy, researchers induce conditions like diabetes, tumors, wounds, and arthritis in lab animals to test plant extracts for potential drug development. Medicinal herbs also treat bacterial, viral, and parasitic disorders and are beneficial for infertility, skin, kidney, respiratory, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal issues. Additionally, certain plants function as galactagogues for cattle and growth promoters in poultry.

This book bridges traditional knowledge and modern research, providing a comprehensive overview of medicinal plants' therapeutic principles, safe use, and clinical applications. Clear explanations of plant identification, pharmacologic effects, and practical uses aim to guide readers in applying these remedies in animal care practices. It serves as a valuable resource for integrating traditional medicine with contemporary science, preserving the legacy of animal healthcare while advancing research and practical applications.
