Abstract Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is a deadly infectious disease with the major challenge of drug resistance, particularly in resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MDR-TB). Medicinal plant therapy is a potential alternative to conventional TB treatment.
Objective: This review analyzes the antimycobacterial potential of medicinal plants and their application in the treatment of TB patients.
Methods: This study was a systematic literature review conducted according to PRISMA guidelines. A literature search was conducted in three major electronic databases: Science Direct, Wiley, and PubMed, using the keywords “Tuberculosis Treatment,” “Herbal Medicine,” and “Multidrug-resistant Tuberculosis (MDR-TB)”. Articles included in this review were selected based on certain inclusion criteria, including publication within the last five years, quantitative research, and topic relevance. Of the 924 articles found, 4 articles met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed further.
Results: Some plants, such as Crinum asiaticum and Eucalyptus camaldulensis, showed significant antimycobacterial potential against TB, including MDR-TB. Medicinal plant therapy may reduce dependence on conventional drugs and the risk of resistance.
Conclusion: Medicinal plant therapy has great potential to be integrated in TB care. Nurses play an important role in educating and monitoring the effectiveness of this therapy.
Keywords Complementary therapy, drug resistant tuberculosis (TB), herbal medicine, nursing practice tuberculosis
