This review focuses on the use of phytoconstituents to treat fungal infections caused by various pathogens. Hence, it will be beneficial for the drug industries and for research activities. Review also focuses on work done with some herbal antifungals and novel approaches which will be future prospective for new drug discoveries in providing better antifungal therapy.
