ABSTRACT Medicinal plants have been utilized as medicine since time immemorial in different countries The WHO estimated that 80% of the population of developing countries relies on traditional medicines, mostly plant drugs, for their primary health care needs of individual and society. Traditional knowledge of Ayurveda medicinal plant and their treatment method are rooted in classical literatures and unscripted dialects of people in India. Medicinal plants are assuming greater importance in present time because of various side effects of modern medication and due to fewer side effects Indian medicinal plants. At present time many medicinal plants and their derivatives are used as a source of many potent and powerful therapeutic agents to treat various disorders worldwide. The majority of these involve the isolation of the active ingredient (chemical compound) found in a particular medicinal plant and its subsequent modification. Krimi roga is one of the disorders successfully treated by medicinal plant. Krimi in Ayurveda in broad sense is all worms and microbes whether visible or invisible; pathogenic and nonpathogenic subtle organisms and microorganism.

Most of the developing countries show prevalence of worm infestation due to poor personal and environmental hygiene which is high among pediatric patients.
