What is Aconite?

Aconite, or aconitum, is a family of perennial plants that has been used for centuries both as a medicine and as a poison. In traditional medicine, extracts of aconitum species have been given as oral supplements to reduce fever, pain, inflammation, and high blood pressure, as well as a diuretic and for sedation. In homeopathy, aconite is used to treat fear, anxiety, restlessness, headaches, exposure to the elements, and various other conditions.

What’s the Problem?

Although aconite has been used throughout history to treat a variety of maladies, all species of the plant are highly toxic and safe dosage is dependent on processing. As little as 2 mg of pure aconite or 1 g of plant may cause death from paralysis of the respiratory center or cardiac muscle. Toxicity may also develop following percutaneous absorption; even slight contact with the flowers can cause fingers to become numb.
