Abstract: (530 Views)
Objective: Children often catch colds because there are many cold viruses that need to be protected against them. Children are more likely to get sick or catch a cold due to their weaker immune system, but when they get a cold, it is better to use medicinal herbs or herbal teas for children's colds instead of chemical drugs. In traditional medicine, medicinal plants are used to treat colic, so the present study is identifying and reporting effective medicinal plants on colds in children.
Methodology: In this review, the key words of cold, children, traditional medicine, medicinal plants and treatment were searched from databases such as Google Scholar, SID, Megaran, Scopus. Irrelevant articles were removed and related articles were used to review the texts.
Results: Based on the obtained results, medicinal plants such as Tilia Cordata, Glycyrrhiza glabra, Sambucus nigra, Patches, Melaleuca alternifolia, Hyssopus officinalis, Inula helenium, Plantago lanceolata, Althea officinalis, Eucalyptus globulus, Citrus limonum, Allim sativum and a number of others Medicinal plants are used to treat children's colds.
Conclusion: Some medicinal plants have antibiotic, anti-inflammatory and antiviral roles and are useful in children. Medicinal plants of this study, having antimicrobial and antiviral properties, can improve cold symptoms in children.
