Alstonia scholaris

Alstonia scholaris is a traditional medicine plant native to Southeast Asia and used in various folk remedies. While its specific uses are not well-documented, studies have shown that Alstonia scholaris bark extract exhibits antioxidant, antifungal, and anthelmintic properties against certain fungi and parasites. Phytochemicals from the plant, such as echitamine chloride and alstonine, demonstrated promising but weaker inhibitory potential compared to standard antimicrobials in combating periodontal pathogens. Additionally, mouthrinses containing Alstonia scholaris and Calotropis procera extracts were found to be effective in maintaining oral health among children, though their efficacy was similar to chlorhexidine with better taste acceptance. No major safety concerns or drug interactions have been recorded for Alstonia scholaris, indicating that it is generally safe when used as directed.
