Abstract

It was possible through this study to give a brief overview of the most important pharmaceutical compounds, which included glycosides, alkaloids, terpenes and their plant sources, which encourages the adoption of various separation techniques protocols to obtain multiple types of pharmaceutical compounds of high pharmacological value from medicinal plants compared to its standard compounds and thus the possibility of using it medically to cure many diseases and dispense with medicines and chemotherapy with multiple side effects and interactions.

The study dealt with garlic, ginger and chamomile plants and their pharmaceutical compounds as examples of medicinal plants known since ancient times, research has confirmed its health benefits, as it supports normal body functions and the immune system.
