Abstract
Searching the plant kingdom for a safe yet effective treatment or cure for tuberculosis is reasonable approach to the problem; particularly, when one considers that no pharmacological prototype has been found outside either the plant or animal kingdom. In this review the plant-derived drugs are discussed which have moderate to significant biological activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The activity is determined in MIC values, which is defined as lowest concentration (minimum inhibitory concentration) of compounds that inhibited 99% of growth of causative organism.
