Phytopharmacology

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Phytopharmacology was invented by the Israeli scientist David Macht in the 1930s. It has since become an established field of drug research, where the active substances come from plants. There is at least one established journal - the International Journal of Phytotherapy & Phytopharmacology [1].
