Abstract
In recent years, due to an increase in microbial resistance to antibiotics and more awareness of the side effects of synthetic chemical compounds, there has been a great interest in the use of herbal products with antimicrobial properties. Today, medicinal plants are considered as a valuable source of natural compounds for use in the production of antimicrobial drugs. This letter has been made to introduce herbal medicines with the antimicrobial application which are available in the Iranian market.
