Context and objectives : West Africa has a very rich ethnozoological heritage due to its rich biodiversity, history and culture. Due to its location in a biodiversity hotspot, its agro-pastoralist traditions and its role during the maritime discoveries of the Renaissance, West Africa has a long list of animals and animal parts that have been used in its folk medicine. These uses can still be found in many historical documents and pharmacopeias.  Bridelia   ferruginea ,  Combretum   glutinosum  and  Mitragyna   inermis  are tropical and subtropical medicinal plants widely used in general traditional African medicine and in West Africa in particularly, including Benin, Nigeria, Burkina Faso and Ivory Coast to treat many diseases such as bladder troubles, diabetes, dysentery, arterial hypertension, rheumatism pain. This study aims to do a literature review of these three tropical plants on their biological and pharmacological properties on veterinary medicine  Methodology and Results : A thorough literature search was done and plants little studied  Bridelia ferruginea, Mitragyna inermis  and  Combretum glutinosum  were chosen in the search for their anthelmintic activity against gastrointestinal parasitic nematodes of small ruminants in Djallonke. Also to confirm their use in traditional veterinary medicine in West Africa.  Conclusion and application of results : This literature review of their extracts properties showed that the plants possessed wide-reaching pharmacological actions, including anti-diabetic, cardiovascular disease antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic and antiplasmodial and justifies their use in traditional medicine for treating various diseases.
