Are there any herbal drug formulation derived from this species?

The sources used to imply medicinal effects of this herb are unreliable. This source is a study of an extract in rats, and does not provide any reliable medical information. The study was published in an obscure journal not indexed by Medline, so is not used to support medical content on Wikipedia, where sourcing is guided by WP:MEDRS.
This source is not reliable to support a medicinal effect of the herb. There are no publications in the medical literature to suggest anything therapeutic about this plant. Zefr (talk) 15:28, 18 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
