Western drugs and target medicines for disease treatment come with
undesirable side effects that have limited their use in patients
for an extended period of time. It is warranted to develop a
treatment strategy with alternative medicines to reduce toxicity
relating to drugs, in particular, cancer drugs. Thus, a combination
therapy with herbal medicines provides a more effective treatment
method for hard-to-treat diseases. The recent breakthroughs in
naturally occurring small molecules from herbal medicines have
provided experimental evidence and are clinically significant in
treatment strategies.This unique volume presents the recent
developments in the field of herbal medicines for the treatment of
diseases and cancer. Recent progress on small molecules isolated
from herbal medicines that exhibit therapeutic benefits in humans
is highlighted. The book provides an overview of the significant
discoveries and pioneering contributions of herbal medicines in
combination with other drugs; the author's evaluation of the
combination therapy in cancer treatment; and a recent discovery of
crocodile tissue extract with pharmacological properties.
