We present the results of an ethnopharmacological research within a Bolivian lowland ethnic group from the dry Chaco, the izoceño-guaraní. Izoceño-guaraní people belong to the extended Chiriguano group. They are actually organised in independent communities, settled down in south-east Bolivia. Struggling very soon for their rights, landowners of their territory, izoceño-guaraní appear to be well organised and maintain a still vivid culture. Medicine is in the hands of Paye who are recognised as specialists in their own group. Ethnopharmacological research leads us to collect approximately over 306 species, 189 of them having medicinal uses. We present here an overview of the izoceño-guaraní ethnomedicine and pharmacopoeia, based on vegetal and animal products.
