Introduction
Herbal medicines have been used by ancient people for many centuries for many purposes such as medical and traditional medicines for health and diseases treatments. Nowadays, many pharmaceutical industries have gained great benefits from bioprospecting activities via drug developments from natural products. There are many “best selling” pharmaceuticals coming from or derivatives from natural compounds. Currently, there is an increase tendency of “back to nature” concept for optimal consumptions of natural medicines with regard to rational approach.
Increasing consumption of natural medicines in medical treatments, however, have not become direct and integral part of the formal health services. Natural medicines should follow formal standard of health services for safety and properties as a main issue for natural or herbal medicines. Other reasons are due to lack of information on clinical aspects and uncommon issue for medical practitioners to prescribing herbal medicines.
