I am a policy maker
As stewards of public health and welfare, policy makers’ decisions shape the landscape of healthcare, including the often overlooked realm of veterinary medicine.
In recent years, there has been a growing recognition of the potential benefits of integrating medicinal plants into animal healthcare practices. From companion animals to livestock, the therapeutic properties of botanical remedies offer a complementary approach to conventional treatments, providing avenues for holistic care and sustainable practices.
The MedPlants4Vet database aims to present a comprehensive overview of the traditional use of medicinal plants in animals, to empower policy makers with the knowledge and tools needed to make informed decisions that promote the health and welfare of animal populations.
We aim to shed light on the potential opportunities and challenges associated with incorporating botanical medicine into veterinary protocols, by delving into the efficacy, safety, and regulatory considerations surrounding the use of medicinal plants in animals.
