Biodiversity and drugs information


Biodiversity plays a vital role in maintaining human and animal health because numerous plants, animals, and fungi are used in medicine to produce vital vitamins, painkillers, antibiotics, and other medications.[1][2][3] Natural products have been recognized and used as medicines by ancient cultures all around the world.[4] Some animals are also known to self-medicate using plants and other materials available to them.[5]
