Introduction: Background & Objectives: Medicinal plants have been considered by many researchers because of their various compounds, including secondary metabolites, which can act as an alternative to chemical drugs. Infectious diseases of viral origin such as influenza, herpes, hepatitis C and Beta corona virus are among the viral diseases. In this article, we review the use of herbs to treat influenza, herpes, hepatitis C and Beta corona virus. The work done by various researchers on effective plants has been reviewed. Also, various forms of medicine such as essential oil of aqueous extract, alcoholic extract, etc. in the treatment of these types of viruses have been reviewed and discussed.
Methods: In this article, we review the use of herbs to treat influenza, herpes, hepatitis C and Beta corona virus. The work done by various researchers on effective plants has been reviewed. Also, various forms of medicine such as essential oil of aqueous extract, alcoholic extract, etc. in the treatment of these types of viruses have been reviewed and discussed.
Results: Findings indicate that the use of medicinal plants derived in different forms (alcoholic extract, aqueous extract, etc.) can be useful in the treatment of influenza, herpes, hepatitis C and Beta corona virus. Also, studies have shown that the side effects of using these drugs are very low.
Conclusion: Medicinal plants can be used to treat viruses as potential treatments with less side effects to be considered.
