Abstract
Prevalence of drug resistance has been reported in many pathogens over the years
in different regions of the world including developing countries. Resistance can be described
as intrinsic and acquired resistance. Issues related to antimicrobial resistance may be avoided
by facilitating herbal research in academia with hypotheses rested with traditional healers of
animals. Ethno veterinary medicines can be advocated successfully for the primary health
care of livestock and poultry against several microbial diseases. This practice also minimizes
the possibility of residues in milk, meat and egg.
