Abstract

Antimicrobial drugs are those drugs which are used to treat diseases caused by microorganisms. To
treat the diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms antibiotic, antiviral, antifungal and antiparasitic
medicines are used. These microbes produces diseases in humans, animals and plants. According to World
Health Organization (WHO). The cases of Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is increasing day by day and
it threatens the effective treatment and prevention of infections caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi and
parasites. AMR occurs when these microbes gets resistance against the effects of medications, which
makes common infections difficult to treat and hence increases the risk of severe illness, disease spread
and death. As a result, the medicines becomes ineffective, infections remains in the body and increases
the probability of spread to others. WHO recommends that decreased use of synthetic antibiotics and
increased use of herbal antimicrobial drugs are the only ways by which the AMR can be controlled or
eliminated. Herbal drugs are considered to be effective and free from side effects. In the present article
we discussed about Aegle Marmelos Linn. (Bael) which is useful in treating many health ailments. It
possess many pharmacological activities like anticonvulsant, antioxidant, antihyperglycemic, anxiolytic,
antidepressant, antihistaminic, antimicrobial, hepatoprotective, analgesic, immune modulatory, cardio
protective and antithyroid activity. Due to its antibacterial activity it is used to treat many infections caused
by bacteria and also have antiulcer activity due to which it is used to treat ulcer patients. The bacteria,
Helicobacter pylori is one of the cause of peptic ulcer. This review article discusses about the effect of
Aegle Marmelos on this bacteria.
