Abstract
Given the potential adverse effects of chemical drugs, utilizing natural products with diverse therapeutic and antimicrobial compounds is advisable. Countries can use indigenous flora from their regions in vegetation for medicinal purposes. Several nations exhibit distinctive indigenous flora owing to their geographic positioning and climatic conditions. These plants have been the subject of our research, which has explored their antimicrobial properties against fungi, parasites, bacteria, and viruses. Studies have investigated the therapeutic and antimicrobial effects of plants and their bioactive compounds, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, and terpenoids. Among them are alkaloids, a diverse class of naturally occurring chemicals, such as tropanes, terpenoids, and steroids. Some of these medicinal plants have been found to possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties in addition to their antimicrobial effects. This chapter explores the antimicrobial potential of alkaloids found in medicinal plants.
