Preferred Abstract (Original): 

Objective: Teucrium polium L. aerial parts have been used by local populations of Palestine for the treatment of various diseases as diabetes mellitus, amoeba, intestinal spasms and diarrhea for that the interest of using this herbal remedy among researchers and populations increased, this study was aimed to evaluate the best area in Palestine that may be considered the best source of collection and cultivation for Teucrium polium plant in the future, to be a good source for manufacturing active pharmaceutical dosage forms from this plant.

Method: The yield of the organic and water extraction method assessed by using exhaustive extraction method, by steeping the plant in ethanol, water and hexane to extract all the chemical ingredients without heating to prevent destroying or changing the plant chemical constituents.

Results: the best aqueous and organic yields were in Bethlehem region (6.4%, 2.6 %), while the lowest aqueous and organic yields were in Qalqilya (4.96%, 1.16%).

Conclusion: We recommended the pharmaceutical companies; Bethlehem region as the best area for cultivation and collection Teucrium plant for manufacturing the best standardized pharmaceutical dosage forms also we recommended the researchers to use the Teucrium plant from this region for their scientific research.
