The article is an ethno botanical note on folk-lore remedies of Baglung district, Nepal. Traditional phytotherapy with herbal drugs plays an important role in the healthcare of the people in rural areas of Nepal. More than 90% of the population resides in rural areas where developmental activities are insufficient. Most traditional healers use medicinal plants, though religious practices and preaching about the supernatural are also in vogue in folk healthcare. The article includes names of medicinal plants and their uses. (Rajeev Ranjan Singh 2007-02-22)
