Abstract

In recent years, there has been increasing interest worldwide in the use of alternative/herbal medicine for the prevention and treatment of fungal
diseases. Currently, however, quality-related problems (lack of consistency, safety, and efficacy) seem to be overshadowing the potential genuine
benefits of various herbal products for the treatment of fungal diseases. Extracts obtained from many plants have recently gained a great popularity
and scientific interest. Since the middle ages, natural plant preparations have been widely used for treatment of fungal diseases. Treatment of the
fungal pathogen is becoming increasingly difficult due to antifungal drug resistance, especially with fluconazole, which is a commonly used azole.
This paper reviews the in vitro activity of angiospermic plant extracts and their major compounds against dermatophytes and also a compilation of
updated information on angiospermic plant extracts with antifungal properties.
Keywords: Dermatophytes, Extracts, Medicinal plants.
