Lung disorders put a global health burden and only a few symptoms are associated with lung disorders. Symptoms include dyspnea, wheezing, cough, cyanosis, chest pain, and fatigue. Chemical drug strategies are implemented to relieve such symptoms and treat various lung disorders. However, chemical drugs have been found not very effective in the treatment as they lead to an increased dependency on them, which normally leads to hospitalization. Therefore, natural products can be an alternative to chemical medicines to overcome such issues. Natural drugs are mainly obtained from plants and are extensively studied as one of the potential treatment strategies for curbing various lung disorders. Several scientific resources, such as Google Scholar, Web of Science, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and plant directories, are analyzed to fetch the relevant studies. This review highlights various plant-based compounds and their intervention in the management of lung diseases. It also discusses the factors associated with pneumonia, ALI/ARDS, and lung cancer, and the MIC values of various plant extracts effective against them. Natural drugs, obtained primarily from plants, are a promising alternative to chemical medicines for the treatment of lung disorders. The review underscores the potential of plant-based treatments and provides insights into their effectiveness against various lung diseases.
