Abstract
The aim of this review is to report the medicinal plants, that are effective on Trichomonas vaginalis. Trichomonosis, caused by the flagellate protozoan vaginalis, is the most common non-viral sexually transmitted disease worldwide. The mainstay medication for trichomoniasis is metronidazole, but some resistant strains to this treatment have been identified. In addition, metronidazole sometimes causes adverse effects. Plant metabolites containing alkaloids, monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes, phenylpropane derivatives, tannins, flavonoids, glycosides, lipids, saponins and lactones were found to possess antitrichomonas properties. Medicinal plants are still invaluable source of safe, less toxic, available and reliable resources of drugs.
