Resumo: There has been a great advance in the pharmacognosy field, which has increased the use of medicinal plants by health professionals and practitioners of folk medicine. This systematic review explored the history and the present day application of phytotherapeutic medicines. We searched the databases Cochrane Library, Embase, Lilacs, PubMed, Scielo and a specialized bibliography. We concluded that there are many therapeutic potentialities in the use of phytotherapeutic medicines and medicinal plants. We also concluded that despite the increasing number of publications in the field each year, there is still a lack of reviews and meta-analyses that could promote a better integration of the knowledge produced. In addition, research about pharmacological interactions and multidisciplinary studies may promote a quicker and safer process from the workbench up to the clinical trials.

Foram realizadas buscas nas bases de dados Cochrane Library, Embase, Lilacs, PubMed, Scielo e em bibliografia especializada. Concluiu-se que, apesar da quantidade de estudos publicados crescer a cada ano, há ainda escassez de revisões e meta-análises que promovam melhor integração do conhecimento produzido. Pesquisas contemplando interações farmacológicas e trabalhos multidisciplinares podem acelerar os estudos em bases mais seguras, desde a bancada até os ensaios clínicos.Centro Universitário de Belo Horizonte Faculdade de MedicinaUniversidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho Faculdade de CiênciasUniversidade Federal de São João del Rei Departamento de Química, Biotecnologia e Engenharia de BioprocessosUniversidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho Faculdade de CiênciasSociedade Brasileira de Plantas MedicinaisCentro Universitário de Belo Horizonte Faculdade de MedicinaUniversidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp)Universidade Federal de São João del Rei Departamento de Química, Biotecnologia e Engenharia de BioprocessosFerreira, T.s.Moreira, C.z.Cária, N.
