Tagara-Relaxant


Valeriana wallichi is a tufted hairy herb found in the temperate Himalayas. The rootstocks are aromatic. They yield aromatic oil, which contains valeric acid. Valerenic acid and valerianine are the other compounds identified. Indian Valerian closely resembles the valerian from V. officinalis in its properties and is used for similar purposes (q.v.). In India, the dried rhizomes are used in perfumes and hair preparations, and as incense, and to a lesser extent in medicine.
