ABSTRACT
Dear readers and authors, We are pleased to bring you a special supplementary issue to volume 2, issue 1, Pharmacognosy Communications. This supplementary issue features a major work examining and reviewing plants and plant products with anticonvulsant activity. This study will be of interest to all readers with an interest in epilepsy and anticonvulsant treatments using natural therapeutics. The authors of this study have exhaustively reviewed the literature/ pharmacological reports related to anticonvulsant plants and plant products using a variety of major databases. The result is perhaps the most comprehensive listing to date of plant species with reported anticonvulsant activity. In excess of 330 plant groupings have been listed and their activities qualitatively compared. Furthermore, the authors also list the plant part(s) used in therapeutic formulation preparation, the methods of preparation and administration as well as the therapeutic dosage. The results are summarised in tabular format for ease of comparison between plant species.
