Abstract

The aim of this review paper was to summarize some commonly available plants which have anti-inflammatory activity with their phytochemical constituents. The data were collected from Current Contents and Scientific Journals, which included in publications. In this paper, the plants have anti-inflammatory activity along with their phytochemical constituents and also mention the family, part used of the every plants. Herbal plants play a significant role in human health in relation to the prevention and treatment of inflammatory conditions. Herbal medicines are popular among the public and improvements in their formulation have resulted in a new generation of phytomedicines that are more potent than before. This paper highlights on the phytochemical constituents of anti-inflammatory activity of some herbal medicines used for treating inflammatory disorders and recent developments in various herbal species. The review gives a comprehensive overview of the phytochemical constituents of medicinal plants with anti-inflammatory potential.
