ABSTRACT
This paper gives an overview on the impact in modern society of anxiety disorders and the search for alternative natural therapies with minimal side effects. A review of preclinical trials performed to analyze the anxiolytic-like activity and the mechanism of action of different plant extracts is presented. We also give a general description of the animal models used to study the mechanisms of action of anti-anxiety drugs. Finally, we present a reflection on the importance of using natural compounds for therapy that are well standardized and whose safety and efficacy have been demonstrated experimentally.
