Summary:This abstract provides a review highlighting the significant role of medicinal plants in the treatment of various diseases globally. To explore this, a questionnaire was conducted in Baghdad to inquire whether individuals resorted to using medicinal plants when experiencing illness. The objective was to gain insights into the efficacy of medicinal plants when used as a form of treatment. Findings from studies conducted worldwide consistently indicate that medicinal plants are widely utilized due to their positive outcomes and cost-effectiveness compared to chemical drugs.
