Abstract
Phytopharmaceuticals have a long historical tradition. Through a method of trial and error, plant and plant extracts were tested and either retained or when displaying disagreeable side effects, discarded. For example, Ononidis radix has been verified for treatment of bladder calculi as first discovered by Dioskurides in 60 AD, and for kidney calculi by Schroder in the 17th century.1 For these indications, these plants are still utilized until today.
