Asthma is a chronic inflammatory syndrome affecting 155 million people worldwide. Despite advances in modern medicine, herbal drugs remain a popular choice, with 70% of India's population using non-allopathic systems of medicine. Ayurveda and other Indian literature mention plants with anti-asthmatic properties. Research has focused on evaluating traditional herbal remedies for asthma treatment. India has 45,000 plant species, many with medicinal properties. The study suggests isolating active chemical constituents and identifying key elements with pharmacological activity. Future research can focus on developing herbal treatments for asthma, providing a safer alternative to allopathic drugs.
