The whole plant is depurative, febrifuge and styptic. A decoction is used in the treatment of epidemic influenza, fever and discomfort, jaundice, haematuria and metrorrhagia. The leaves are chewed with wild ginger and traditional ash salt as an antidote to poisoning. The leaves are rubbed onto the forehead in order to ease a headache. The stem is chewed and swallowed to ease a cough. The seed contains 3.5% essential oil. This is effective at large dilutions against pathogenic fungi.
