According to published and other information: External use for furuncles and skin ulcer is classified as REC, based on the significant traditional use (OMS/WHO)4 documented in the TRAMIL surveys. For topical application, strict hygienic measures should be observed in order to avoid contamination or additional infection. Should there be a notable worsening of the patient’s condition, or should furuncles or skin ulcer last for more than 5 days, seek medical attention. Not for use during pregnancy, during lactation or by children under 5 years old. |
For furuncles and skin ulcer: Wash the affected area with boiled water and soap. Wash leaf thoroughly, warm it slightly over a fire, take 5-10 grams of this vegetal material and apply topically either directly or mixed with animal fat. Cover with a pad or with clean cloth and replace twice a day. |

Recommandations
Preparation and posology References |
According to published and other information: Use for diarrhea, stomach pain and intestinal parasites, is classified as REC, based on the significant traditional use documented in the TRAMIL surveys, and on available published scientific information. In no case should the specified manner of preparation and dosage be altered. Should there be a notable worsening of the patient’s condition, or should the diarrhea or stomach pain last more than 3 days, or more than 2 days in children over 5 years old, medical attention should be sought. For diarrhea, this resource is considered complementary to oral re-hydration therapy. Use for diarrhea, stomach pain and intestinal parasites is recommended only when disorder is caused by ascaris, pinworms and hookworms; not for other types of diarrhoea, stomach pain or other intestinal parasites. Use is contraindicated in individuals with hepatic disorders, renal insufficiency14, weakened individuals and the elderly. Not for use by women during pregnancy, as it may be abortifacient, or during breast feeding or by children under 5 years old. Use for skin ulcer is classified as REC, based on the significant traditional use documented in the TRAMIL surveys and skin toxicity assays. Should there be a notable worsening of the patient’s condition, or should the skin ulcer last more than 5 days, medical attention should be sought for. In topical application, strict hygiene measures should be observed in order to avoid contamination or additional infection. |
For intestinal parasites, diarrhea and stomach pain caused by parasites: prepare a decoction or infusion with 7 grams of aerial parts (leaf, flower, stem) in 300 mL (more than 1 cup) of water. For decoction, boil for at least 10 minutes in a covered pot; for infusion, add boiling water to 7 grams of aerial parts, cover and leave to cool down during 10 minutes. Strain and drink 1 cup (250 mL) for adults, 1/2 cup (125 mL) for people weighing 35 kg, and 1/3 cup (80 mL) for children over 5 years. Drink once a day only for 3 consecutive days46 and do not repeat treatment within six months. Taking a saline laxative is recommended (e.g. magnesium sulfate) after the last intake; however, no oily purgatives should be taken14. For skin ulcer: Wash the injury with purified water and soap. Wash the aerial plant parts properly, press or crush, and apply to affected area. Cover with a clean cloth and replace twice a day. |
