Conditions Treated Using Celandine:
Name: Celandine
Other Names: common celandine, celandine poppy
Description: Celandine is also called as greater celandine, common celandine, tetterwort and celandine poppy. The greater celandine is a yellow flowering plant in the poppy family, native to Europe and the Mediterranean basin. It is also widespread in North America, having been brought there by settlers as a herbal remedy for skin problems such as warts as early as 1672. The aerial parts and roots of Greater Celandine are used in herbalism. The above ground parts are gathered during the flowering season and dried at high temperatures. The root is harvested in Autumn between August and October and dried. The fresh rhizome is also used. Celandine has a hot and bitter taste. The latex has a narcotic fragrance.Preparations are made from alcoholic and hot aqueous extractions. The average daily dosage is 2 to 4 g, equivalent to 12 to 13 mg total alkaloids. For fluid extracts, the daily dosage is 1 to 2 ml of 1:1 25% alcoholic extraction, up to 3 times per day. For hot tea infusions, 1.5 desert spoonfuls left in boiling water for 10 minutes can be taken 3 times a day.It was formerly used by gypsies as a foot refresher; modern herbalists use its purgative properties. Greater celandine acts as a mild sedative which has been used historically to treat asthma, bronchitis, and whooping cough. The herb's antispasmodic effect improves bile flow in the gallbladder and has been reputed to treat gallstones and gallbladder pain. As far back as Pliny the Elder and Dioscorides this herb has been recognized as a useful detoxifying agent. The root has been chewed to relieve toothache.
