studied medicinal plants of practical importance growing in Mongolia. Therefore, there is a need to register and study the ancient medicinal books written by ancient Mongolian doctors about the relatively lilUe-studied Veronica Incana L plant. In addition, taking into account that scientific research on Veronica Incana L. which grows in Mongolia, has not been done in the field of medicine, the topic was selected for research in this field.
