ABSTRACT
Kidney stone formation is a complex that results from a succession of several physicochemical
events including supersaturation, nucleation, growth, aggregation and retention within the
kidneys. Urinary stones affect 10-12 % of the population in industrialized countries. The
problem of the stone formation is considered as a medical challenge due to its high rate of
recurrence and also due to multifactorial etiology. So, in the present review aims to give data
highlighting the present trends in research of medicinal plants accredited with antiurolithiatic
activity. This article may help investigators to develop effective drug for urolithiasis.
