摘要：
Immuno-modulators play a key role in immunity of each animal in this world. Almost all animals have their own system to produce different immuno-modulators at different time. This review focuses on the use of a variety of natural products/drugs in the enhancement and suppression of impaired immune system under unfavorable conditions. The main accent of this review is to emphasize on the need to evaluate the potential of Indian Ayurvedic remedies as adjuvants to counteract side effects of modern therapies. This study also highlights on the process involved in drug discovery from plant extracts in India. The review assigned a brief discussion on past and present scenario of herbal medicines in India with some important recommendations, suggestions and future directions in this area of herbal medicines.
