Synopsis
Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1
Lilium polyphyllum, commonly known as the "many-leaved lily," is a plant with a long history of use in traditional systems of medicine, particularly in parts of the Himalayas and northern India. Its bulbs are valued in various folk remedies. In traditional Unani and Ayurvedic medicine, Lilium polyphyllum has been mentioned as an ingredient in formulations used for general weakness, as a tonic, and for conditions that may include symptoms of dizziness or debility. However, the documentation specifically linking its use to the treatment of dizziness is sparse and mostly anecdotal, derived from ethnobotanical surveys and historical texts rather than controlled research studies.
There is currently no robust scientific evidence—such as clinical trials or pharmacological studies—demonstrating efficacy or elucidating a mechanism for Lilium polyphyllum in the direct management of dizziness (vertigo). The traditional use is thus largely based on historical context and local practitioner experience rather than scientific validation. The overall quality of evidence supporting its use for this particular indication is weak, and further research would be necessary to confirm any therapeutic potential.
