The state of Pernambuco is located in the northeast region of Brazil and is approximately 98,311 km2 in length. In addition, its vast biodiversity is one of its main characteristics, and among its ecosystems stands out the mangrove, which is a coastal ecosystem of transition between the terrestrial and marine bioms. Based on this, the present study aims to observe and discuss the medicinal properties of mangrove plants in Pernambuco. For this, a qualitative survey was carried out regarding the characteristics and properties of the mangrove plants. This research was carried out through the analysis of 25 articles from Scielo and Google scholar platforms, dated between 2008 and 2019. Through these, it was possible to verify the importance and usefulness of the plants from the mangrove of the state of Pernambuco to the community and for pharmaceutical purposes. As results, 4 species of plants belonging to 3 families and their medicinal nature in the use by the population and industry were identified.
