Abstract
El conocimiento actual que tenemos sobre las plantas medicinales y sus aplicaciones terapéuticas es resultado de las aportaciones de sociedades y culturas de todos los tiempos. En la actualidad, constituyen la base de la medicina moderna, que en la mayoría de los casos, va de la mano de la medicina convencional. Imprescindible es, por tanto, conocer todo acerca de estos medicamentos, matiz que nunca se debe olvidar; con el fin de proporcionar al usuario productos de calidad, seguridad y eficacia. En España, el mercado cada vez es mayor, lo cual ha favorecido la aparición de nuevos establecimientos donde adquirirlas, quedando así el canal farmacéutico relegado por otras alternativas. En esta revisión se discute la labor del farmacéutico como único profesional capacitado de desarrollar su labor de educador sanitario. Además, se tratará de estudiar la situación actual del mercado español, y algunas de las interacciones más relevantes que pueden presentarse por un consumo descontrolado de estos productos.
