The Ebers Papyrus from ancient Egypt, c. 1550 BC, describes over 850 plant medicines aka Medicinal Herbs inc. aloe, cannabis, castor bean, juniper garlic, pepper and mandrake

In modern medicine, around a quarter of the drugs prescribed to patients are derived from medicinal plants, and they are rigorously tested. In other systems of medicine, medicinal plants and herbs may constitute the majority of what are often informal attempted treatments, not tested scientifically. The World Health Organization estimates, without reliable data, that some 80 percent of the world's population depends mainly on traditional medicine (including but not limited to plants and herbs) perhaps some two billion people are largely reliant on medicinal herbs.
