1.1 INTRODUCTION

The integration of herbal remedies into contemporary medicine underscores a profound and endur­ing relationship between human health and plant- based therapies. Modern pharmacopoeias, meticu­lously crafted to standardize medicinal products, encompass both synthetic and natural substances [1]. Among the notable herbal pharmacopoeias are the Indian Herbal Pharmacopoeia (IHP), the Korean Herbal Pharmacopoeia (KHP), the American Herbal Pharmacopoeia (AHP) and the British Herbal Pharmacopoeia (BHP). Each of these resources offers detailed and rigorously reviewed monographs on a diverse range of botanicals, including Ayurvedic, Chinese, and Western herbs. For instance, the AHP provides an extensive repository of information on herbal medicines, serving as an indispensable reference for academics, healthcare professionals, manufacturers, and regulators [2]. Herbal medicines are a vital component of primary healthcare worldwide, with around 80% of the global population depending on them for various health- related needs, as reported by the World Health Organization (WHO) [3]. This reliance reects the swift expansion of the phytopharmaceuti­cal industry, particularly within the dietary supplement market. Despite this growth, many supple­ments suffer from inadequate research and variable quality.
The relationship between traditional herbal practices and modern therapeutic applications is sig­nicant. Of the 120 active compounds extracted from plants and employed in current medical treat­ments, 80% show a strong alignment with their traditional uses [4]. Usage statistics reveal that herbal medicines are widely embraced across different regions: over 90% of individuals in Africa, 70% in India, and signicant percentages in Germany, Australia, Canada, the United States, Belgium, and France use herbal remedies to meet their healthcare needs [5]. Economically, herbal medicines present a compelling alternative to synthetic drugs. Developing a new synthetic drug generally takes about 12 years and can cost roughly $230 million. In contrast, the research and development of herbal medicines tend to be faster and more cost- effective. The global market for herbal medicines is experiencing rapid growth, with an annual increase of over 15%, and it is projected that the trade in herbal products in the United States will reach $70 billion by 2050 [6].
Countries in the developing world, which are rich in plant species with medicinal properties, play a crucial role in this eld. It is estimated that around 35,000 plant species have medicinal uses, with over 7,000 compounds in modern pharmacopoeia originating from these plants. The WHO denes

herbs as crude plant materials used in various forms and recognizes herbal medicines as preparations and mixtures derived from these plant materials [7].
The emergence of nanomedicine has brought revolutionary advancements to the eld, enabling the manipulation of nanoparticles for drug development. Nanotechnology, involving particles smaller than 100 nanometers, offers new opportunities for addressing challenges in medicine and pharmacy. This technology enables the exact control of atoms and molecules, resulting in the cre­ation of innovative materials and systems with distinctive properties. Recent advancements in herbal technology showcase a rened combination of traditional knowledge and modern scientic methods [8]. Precision farming and controlled environments optimize the cultivation of medicinal herbs, while nanocarriers improve the targeted delivery of herbal extracts. The incorporation of articial intelligence further speeds up drug discovery from herbal sources. This merging of ancient wisdom with advanced science marks a new era in the development of potent herbal products and medicines, ready to tackle current health challenges with enhanced effectiveness and understanding [3].

1.2 THE EVOLUTION OF HERBAL MEDICINE: A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE

Herbal medicine, as articulated in the ancient Chandogya Upanishad—“The essence of all beings is Earth. The essence of the Earth is Water. The essence of Water is Plants. The essence of Plants is the Human Being”—has historically unfolded along two primary trajectories. The rst trajectory represents a tradition of simplicity where community- based practitioners, including folk healers and familial custodians of herbal knowledge, employed medicinal plants to provide care [9]. These practitioners, who often held a profound understanding of local ora, have played a crucial role in maintaining health and wellness within their communities through generations. The second pathway includes the professional medical practitioners of ancient times, who were often among the most educated scholars of their era. This path is well recorded in foundational texts such as Dioscorides’
De Materia Medica and the Hippocratic Corpus from Greece, India’s Charaka Samhita, China’s Shen Nong Ben Cao, and Avicenna’s Canon of Medicine from Persia. During the Renaissance, herbal
medicine was further advanced by prominent gures such as Fuchs, Gerard, Mattioli, Parkinson, and Salmon [10]. These established medical traditions were closely linked with sophisticated concepts of anatomy, physiology, and pathology. On the other hand, folk healing practices were rooted in hands­ on experience and collective community knowledge. While early Western medicine, shaped by the humoral theories of Hippocrates, Galen, and Avicenna, has progressed and moved away from these old frameworks, the core principles of Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine have remained steadfast. Both systems maintain that humans are an integral part of nature and continue to evolve while adher­ing to their historical principles, reecting a harmonious alignment with natural processes for healing.

1.3 DIVERSITY OF HERBAL PHARMACOPOEIAS ACROSS THE GLOBE

Traditional medicines have been used worldwide for millennia, providing critical therapeutic resources to nearly 85% of the global population and contributing substantially to contemporary healthcare. These ancient remedies remain inuential in drug discovery, with around 46% of newly approved drugs between 1981 and 2019 either sourced from, or inspired by, natural products [11]. During the COVID- 19 pandemic, traditional Chinese medicines played a signicant role in allevi­ating symptoms, slowing disease progression, and decreasing both mortality and recurrence rates. Currently, there are over 60 recognized pharmacopoeias globally, with 42 of them (70%) including documentation of herbs or natural products [12].

1.3.1 The IndIan PharmacoPoeIa (IP)

The Indian Pharmacopoeia (IP) is the ofcial benchmark for drug quality in India. Created by the Indian Pharmacopoeia Commission (IPC), which operates under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare of the Government of India, the IP sets forth criteria for the identity, purity, and potency of
Introduction to Herbal Pharmacopeia 3
pharmaceuticals in order to guarantee their quality. The IP is periodically updated with addenda to incorporate urgent revisions and new entries, and these updates are considered as authoritative as the main version of the IP.
The roots of the Intellectual Property (IP) can be traced to the 1844 publication of the Bengal Pharmacopoeia and General Conspectus of Medicinal Plants. This work concentrated on native drugs but also featured certain European remedies. India’s inaugural ofcial pharmacopoeia was issued in 1868, blending components from the 1867 British Pharmacopoeia with indigenous medi­cines [13]. After India gained independence, the Indian Pharmacopoeia Committee was established in 1948, and it published the rst edition of the Indian Pharmacopoeia in 1955.

1.3.2 The euroPean PharmacoPoeIa (Ph. eur.)

The European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.) characterizes a herbal drug as an entire, fragmented, or cut plant or its parts, encompassing algae, fungi, or lichens, in its natural state, which is usu­ally dried but can occasionally be fresh [11]. It also covers specic exudates that have not been subject to particular processing. Founded in 1964 through the Convention on the Elaboration of a European Pharmacopoeia under the Council of Europe, the Ph. Eur. sets quality standards for the production and regulation of medicines across Europe and has an impact on other nations, including Moldova [9]. The 11th edition, effective from January 1, 2023, is the latest, although the 10th edition was used in this review due to availability constraints [14]. The Ph. Eur. has expanded its reach, with Moldova joining the Convention in 2017 and countries such as India, Japan, and Uzbekistan becoming observer states, demonstrating its ongoing relevance and dynamism.
In the European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.), herbal medicines are identied using a binomial nomenclature system that includes botanical scientic names [11]. The initial term species the genus, species, or variety, while the second term describes the type of plant part, such as underground parts (e.g., radix, rhizome, tubera, bulbus), bark (cortex), or aerial parts (e.g., herba, folium, os, fructus, pseudofructus, pericarpium, semen, seminis tegumentum, gemmae). The 10th edition of the Ph. Eur. features more than 2,500 monographs and around 370 general texts [13]. This includes six general monographs (e.g., herbal drugs, herbal drug extracts, essen­tial oils), 27 general texts (e.g., pesticides, heavy metals in herbal drugs, High performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) of herbal drugs and preparations), and 315 individual mono­graphs [15].

1.3.3 unITed STaTeS PharmacoPoeIa (uSP)

The United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) is a self- governing, scientic, nonprot entity commit­ted to advancing public health by setting public standards. Its goal is to enhance global health by guaranteeing the quality, safety, and effectiveness of medicines and food products [12]. Within the Dietary Supplements section (Volume 3) of the USP, there are detailed monographs for herbal drugs [7]. These monographs adhere to established nomenclature and quality control protocols, listing herbal drug names in English and their scientic names in Latin, and specifying the minimum con­tent of quantied constituents when relevant [16].

1.3.4 The ruSSIan FederaTIon’S STaTe PharmacoPoeIa (SPrF)

The 14th edition of the State Pharmacopoeia of the Russian Federation (SPRF), introduced in 2018, includes 107 monographs detailing medicinal plants [15]. This edition adds 25 new monographs and eliminates one from the 11th edition. It also covers plants which are not indigenous to Russia, which do not have a traditional usage history, or which are commonly used in Western medicine [17]. Each SPRF monograph presents the name of the herbal drug in both Russian and Latin. The Russian name is given rst, followed by the Latin name, which is in the plural form.
