MARTAGON MARULA SCLEROCARYA BIRREA

MARTAGON (Lilium martagon L.) ++

PH2s covers Lilium candidum L. and L. martagon L. but excludes Lilium tigrinum Ker Gawl, now better known as Lilium lancifolium Thunberg. The USDA views all three as different, so I too, will include all three in my Herbal Desk Reference. EFS and HHB aggregated data for tiger lily and martagon. I treat them as separate.

Activities (Martagon) :
Carminative (f; EFS); Diuretic (f; EFS; PH2); Emmenagogue (f; EFS); Emollient (f; EFS); Expectorant (f; EFS); Tonic (f; EFS).

Indications (Martagon) :
Cancer (f; JLH); Dysmenorrhea (f; PH2); Gas (f; EFS); Scleroma (f; JLH); Sore (f; PH2); Water Retention (f; EFS; PH2).

Contraindications, Interactions, and Side Effects (Martagon) :
Not covered (AHP). “Hazards and/or side effects not known for proper therapeutic dosages” (PH2) (but PH2 designates no specific quantified dosage! JAD).
