Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Clerodendrum indicum (often misspelled as "Celrodendrum indicum") has a history of use in traditional medicine systems, particularly in Ayurveda and folk medicine across parts of Asia. Traditionally, various parts of the plant have been used to address a range of ailments, including fever, respiratory problems, and as a general tonic. There are some anecdotal and ethnobotanical reports suggesting its use for supporting symptoms like dizziness or “weakness,” though these are not consistently documented nor are they central uses. The rationale in traditional medicine is often rooted in the plant’s purported ability to “clear wind” or balance bodily systems, which can be interpreted in some cases as addressing symptoms like dizziness.

Despite these traditional uses, Clerodendrum indicum has not been extensively studied in modern scientific contexts for its effects on dizziness specifically. There are some pharmacological studies on related species indicating possible neuroprotective or circulatory effects, but no direct clinical evidence connects Clerodendrum indicum to the treatment or support of dizziness in humans. Therefore, its use for this purpose is justified primarily by tradition, and the scientific evidence remains extremely limited (hence, a rating of 1).
