Ethnobotany & Chemistry
There are over a hundred chemical substances
that have been derived from plants for use as drugs and medicines. This is by
no means a comprehensive list of all of the plants, names of chemicals, or uses
for those chemicals, but it should serve as a useful starting point for further
research. For your convenience, I have listed the common name of a plant next
to its scientific name. Be advised that common names are very imprecise and
often assigned to completely different plants, so use the scientific name when
looking for additional information concerning a plant.
