Abstract

Two Chrysanthemum species are officially listed in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia:

  • Yejuhua, Flos Chrysanthemi indici, is the dry composite inflorescence of Chrysanthemum indicum L. (Asteraceae), which is collected in the fall and winter. It is used in traditional Chinese medicine as an antiphlogistic for the treatment of carbuncle, furuncle, conjunctivitis, headache, and vertigo.
