Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2

Arisaema erubescens, also known as "Cobra Lily," has a long history of use in traditional medicine systems in the Himalayan regions, particularly in Nepal, India, and surrounding areas. In these traditions, the tuber of Arisaema erubescens is used for various ailments, including headache. Ethnobotanical surveys and reports indicate that local healers have used preparations of its tuber, often after specific processing to reduce its toxicity, to relieve headache and related symptoms. However, there is minimal scientific research validating these uses, and the evidence is primarily anecdotal or based on ethnobotanical records rather than clinical studies. The plant contains bioactive compounds, such as alkaloids and saponins, which may have pharmacological effects, but their role in treating headaches has not been systematically studied. Additionally, the raw plant material is known to be toxic and can cause irritation if not properly processed. In summary, the use of Arisaema erubescens for headache relief is supported by traditional knowledge rather than scientific validation, and should be approached with caution due to potential toxicity.
