Abstract
Ethnopharmacy is the pharmaceutical science that studies using and treating medicinal plants from certain ethnic groups or ethnic groups. The people of Bollangi Hamlet, Pattallassang District, and Gowa Regency have been using medicinal plants to treat diseases for generations because they have access to treatment, such as the local health center, and the hospital is quite far away. This study aims to determine the types of plants and parts of plants that are used in traditional medicine, how to process them, how to use them, and types of plants that have the potential to be further studied for their bioactivity. This research uses a descriptive research type combining qualitative and quantitative methods. Qualitative research was conducted by way of interviews and experiences of respondents.
