In this study we attempted to evaluate the antileishmanial effects of the black tea decoction extract as herbal medicines. L. major promastigotes were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium enriched with 10% FCS in the presence of 10, 20, 30 and 40% of extracts. Parasites behavioral reaction and growth pattern was monitored after 0.5, 1, 5, 24, 48 and 72 hours post-seeding by counting fixed parasites in a haemocytometer chamber and observing their motility pattern and shape by invert microscopy. Parasite viability was evaluated by MTT (3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazolyl-2)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay. The results indicated that the number of promastigotes in groups containing 10, 20, 30 and 40% extract had decreased after 24, 28 and 72 hours while normal growth was observed in the control group which was significantly different (p
