Pharmacognosy

Pharmacognosy is the study of natural medicines derived from living things like plants, microorganisms, and animals. Many significant medications still in use today, such as morphine, atropine, galantamine, etc., have their roots in nature and are still useful model molecules for drug development. Pharmacognosy also includes traditional medicine, and the majority of third-world nations still rely heavily on the use of plant remedies. Pharmacognosy is always in demand in the pharmaceutical sciences and is crucial to the development of new drugs.
