Plants represent an important source of compounds for treating malaria, highlighting the rich biodiversity of Brazilian flora as a vital resource for developing new, effective antimalarial drugs. The present study sought to shed light on the search for new compounds with antimalarial activity obtained from the Brazilian flora. In this sense, a systematic review was conducted using screening techniques based on "The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis" (PRISMA) protocol. Most of the plants collected in the studies were from the Amazon Rainforest, north of Brazil. Most of the isolated compounds were from the Apocynaceae family and the alkaloids were the main compounds isolated with significant antiplasmodial activity, followed by flavonoids and phenolic compounds. The Brazilian flora can source many compounds with potential antimalarial activity that can challenge Plasmodium drug resistance. However, new studies are still needed to elucidate the natural compounds activity for future application in Malaria treatment.
