An ethnomedicianal profile of 112 species of remedial herbs, shrubs, and trees of 61 families with significant gastrointestinal, antimicrobial, cardiovascular, herpetological, renal, dermatological, hormonal, analgesic and antipyretic applications have been explored systematically by circulating semi-structured and unstructured questionnaires and open ended interviews from 40-74 years old mature local medicine men having considerable professional experience of 10-50 year in all the four geographically diversified subdivisions i.e. Sialkot, Daska, Sambrial and Pasrur of district Sialkot with a total area of 3106 square kilometres with population density of 1259/km2, in order to unveil botanical flora for world. Family Fabaceae is found to be the most frequent and dominant family of the region.
