Traditional medicinal plants have long been used for managing infectious diseases, yet scientific validation of their efficacy remains limited for many species. This systematic review synthesizes existing evidence on the antimicrobial activities of nine medicinal plants traditionally used:\n                      <jats:italic>Lepidium sativum<\/jats:italic>\n                      ,\n                      <jats:italic>Saussurea costus, Rhus tripartita<\/jats:italic>\n                      ,\n                      <jats:italic>Chenopodium murale, Pyrus communis<\/jats:italic>\n                      ,\n                      <jats:italic>Argemone ochroleuca<\/jats:italic>\n                      ,\n                      <jats:italic>Trigonella hamosa<\/jats:italic>\n                      ,\n                      <jats:italic>Galium odoratum<\/jats:italic>\n                      , and\n                      <jats:italic>Erucaria hispanica<\/jats:italic>\n                      .\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Following PRISMA guidelines, a comprehensive search was conducted in Google Scholar for studies published between 1 January 2000\u20131 August 2025.

Only English-language studies investigating the antibacterial or antifungal activity of extracts or isolated metabolites from the target species were included.
