Abstract
In the realm of medicine, the study of pharmacognosy stands as a testament to the age-old adage that nature holds the key to healing. Pharmacognosy, derived from the Greek words "pharmakon" (drug) and "gnosis" (knowledge), is the science dedicated to the discovery, identification, and characterization of bioactive compounds derived from natural sources, particularly plants. This article delves into the multifaceted world of pharmacognosy, exploring its rich history, modern applications, and significance in drug discovery and development.
