Anchusa azurea, also known as lungwort, is a traditional herb that has been used in various folk remedies but lacks specific documented traditions. Scientific studies have shown promising results with Anchusa azurea methanolic extract demonstrating significant anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, along with wound healing properties, without causing toxicity in rat models. The plant's extracts also exhibited varying degrees of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antihemolytic activity, indicating potential health benefits. Additionally, while both Anchusa azurea and Allium kharputense showed antioxidant activities relevant to conditions such as diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, and glaucoma, the specific interactions between these plants and other substances have not been extensively studied. To date, no major safety issues or drug interactions have been recorded for Anchusa azurea.
