ABBREVIATION: Gels.

NATURAL ORDER: Loganiacee

''SYNONYMS: '' Bignonia sempervirens L., Bignonia (English), sauvage (French), Gift Jasmin (German)1; Yellow jessamine, Jessamine, Carolina jessamine, Wild Woodbine, White Poison Vine, White jessamine2; Pers ( also known as G. Nitidum, MX)3 ; Aiton, Carolina Jasmin4

MEDICAL HISTORY: The history of introduction of Gelsemium in medicine is quiet controversial. The following records are available. A) RAFINESQUE (1830): Stated that “Root and flowers” are narcotic, their effluvia may cause stupor, tincture of the root is used for rheumatism in frictions,” a statement taken almost literally from ELLIOTT’S BOTANY OF SOUTH CAROLINA and GEORGIA (1821).

B) AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION (1849): PORCHER commended Gelsemium in his report to the and, concerning its restricted local use in gonorrhea and rheumatism, referred to FROST’S ELEMENTS OF MATERIA MEDICA (SOUTH CAROLINA) as well as to several local journal articles.

C) KING’S AMERICAN ECLECTIC DISPENSATORY (1854): It was the mistake of a servant of a Southern planter who was afflicted with fever. This servant by error gave his master a decoction of Gelsemium root, instead of the garden plant intended. Immediate loss of muscular power and great depression followed, all control of the limbs was lost, and the eyelids drooped and could not be voluntarily opened. Death seemed imminent. But the effects finally wore away and the man recovered, free from fever, which did not recur. An observing physician took this experience as a text and prepared from Gelsemium a remedy which he called the “Electrical Febrifuge,” which attained some popularity. Finally, the name of the drug concerned was given to the profession.

D) THE U. S. PHARMACOPOEIA (1860): Gelsemium made its place here, although not until 1880 did that work give place to any preparation of Gelsemium.

HOMEOPATHIC HISTORY: Here there is also contradiction! Various sources are descripting as followings. A) Gelsemium was introduced in homeopathy by Dr. Matcafe in 18531. B) Introduced by John H. Henry in 1852, proved by Douglas, Payne, Hering, Kemper, Morgan, Hare and others.5 C) Some others praises Dr. E. M. Hale, also Dr. WE. Payne.6,7

PART USED: Rhizome. Moisture content of the fresh rhizome is 233ml per 100gm solids.1

DESCRIPTION: Gelsemium is one of the most beautiful native plants of North America, occurring in rich, moist soils, by the sides of streams, along the seacoast from Virginia to the south of Florida extending into Mexico. The drug in commerce mostly consists of the undergroundstem or rhizome, with occasional pieces of the root. The rhizome is easily distinguished by occurring in nearly straight pieces, about 6 to 8 inches long, and 1/4 to 3/4 inch in diameter, having small dark pith and a purplish-brown, longitudinally fissured bark. The root is smaller, tortuous, and of a uniform yellowish-brown colour, finely wrinkled on the surface.8

CONSTITUENTS: 1. Two bitter alkaloids— a) Crystallisable gelsemine- paralyzing agent b) Amorphous gelseminine- a very toxic and tetanizing principle 2. Gelseminic acid (it is probably identical with beta-methyl aesculetin or chrysatropic acid found in Belladonna root) 3. 6 per cent of a volatile oil 4. 4 per cent of resin 5. Gum and starch

MODE OF ACTION: 4

Image:Sudipta thakur.JPG
Hi. When you uploaded Image:Sudipta thakur.JPG, you did not specify complete source and copyright information. Another user subsequently tagged it with GFDL-presumed and, for some time, it has existed on Wikipedia under the assumption that you created the image and you agreed to license it under the GFDL. This assumption, however well-meaning, is not legally sufficient and the tag is being phased out. Images using it are being deleted.

This image has been tagged for deletion and will be deleted in one week if adequate copyright information is not provided.

If you, personally, are the author of this content, meaning that you took the photograph yourself or you created the chart yourself (and it does not use any clipart that you did not create), please retag the image with a free image copyright tag that correctly describes your licensing intentions, usually GFDL-self or PD-self. Please also make sure if you have not already done so that you write a good description of what the image depicts, when you took the photo, and other important details. This will allow Wikipedia to continue using the image.

If you did not create the image or if it is derived from the copyrighted works of others, please keep in mind that most images on the internet are copyrighted and are not suitable for use on Wikipedia. Wikipedia respects the copyrights of others and does not use images unless we know that they have been freely licensed. Any creative work is automatically copyrighted, even if it lacks a copyright notice. Unless the copyright holder has specifically disclaimed their rights to the image and released it under the GFDL or another compatible license, we cannot use it. If you did not create the image, and cannot make the image compliant with Non-free content, simply do nothing and it will be deleted in a week. All other non-free images must follow these rules.
