Herbal medicines are derived from different plant components—such as roots, leaves, stems, flowers, and seeds—and are widely utilized to enhance wellness and manage health conditions. Popular examples include ginseng, ginkgo biloba, turmeric, chamomile, and ginger. For centuries, traditional healing systems across the world have relied on plant-based remedies for both human and veterinary healthcare.

Modern consumers are increasingly turning toward alternative therapies due to lifestyle-related disorders such as stress, obesity, and cardiovascular diseases. The global preference for herbal medicine has surged as these products are perceived as safer, sustainable, and having minimal side effects compared to synthetic pharmaceuticals. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), nearly 80% of the world’s population uses traditional medicine, much of which is based on plant-derived ingredients.

The COVID-19 pandemic, declared in March 2020, disrupted global healthcare supply chains and impacted the availability of both conventional and herbal medicines. Research published in the DARU Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences reported that hospitals experienced a 100%–700% increase in the use of drugs such as sedatives, analgesics, and respiratory medications during the early phase of the outbreak.
