Thus, it is possible to use them in accordance with evidence based medicine standards for adjuvant treatment of diabetic patients. The aim of this work is to provide a survey of herbal drugs and their pharmacological effects registered as drugs and other promising and well described herbal drugs used in medicinal tea blends. |
