Abstract

Terminalia chebula Retz. belongs to the family “Combretaceae”, is a valuable medicinal plant . T. chebula showed a number of medicinal activities due to the presence of a large number of different types of phytochemicals. Amphotericin B is a very useful antibiotic for fungal infections. This present study has been done to evaluate the interaction between methanol extract of the fruits of T. chebula and Amphotericin B on their antifungal activity against Candida albicans. The results of this study showed that there is an increased activity in case of combination of plant extract and antibiotic. This Combination therapy could be a new way to treat diseases which are caused by Candida albicans (MTCC 183).
