Editorial Note

Medicine is the branch of science that studies diseases (illnesses) in humans and animals, as well as the best techniques to avoid them and recover from them. It can be defined as anything that tackles a human being’s health problem, whether it is of the body, mind, or spirit, and helps them recover by treating the condition. Medical doctors and physicians are the most common terms used to describe those who practise medicine. Doctors frequently collaborate with nurses and other health-care providers. Many doctors specialise in a specific field of medicine. Pediatrics, for example, is a medical speciality concerned with the health of children.

People used to rely on various parts of medicinal plants such as Tulasi, Vasaka, Neem, and others, or their extracts, for the treatment of diseases in the past. Scientists observed and analysed the composition of those substances and developed similar kinds of molecules artificially, and the direct use of medicinal plants has gradually decreased. As medical research progressed, scientists created a slew of new chemicals that are more effective and provide faster relief. Some of these compounds could also be used to treat incurable diseases. Medicines are the names given to these compounds. Penicillin, tetracycline, and sulphadiazine are some examples of drugs. Quinine is a medication derived from the bark of the cinchona tree. It’s given to people to help them get rid of malaria.
