Adder's Tongue

Ophioglossum vulgatum

Ophioglossum vulgatum, commonly known as Adder's-tongue fern, is a plant traditionally used in few documented practices. There are no reported traditional uses or specific cultural applications for this species. Scientific evidence suggests a probable association between the consumption of Ophioglossum vulgatum and severe rhabdomyolysis, based on case reports. The study also indicates that the plant's microbial communities exhibit tissue-specific and rhizosphere-dependent variations, correlating with bioactive compound accumulation. In another study, administration of 20 mg/kg crude extract significantly reduced mean blood pressure by 31.53% in spontaneously hypertensive rats within 60 minutes, though the evidence is limited. No major safety issues or drug interactions have been recorded for this plant, but further research is needed to confirm these findings and explore its potential medicinal applications comprehensively.
