| Labonn fanm, Ageratum conyzoides, is widely used in a leaf infusion for
high inflammation, "urine burns,’’ blood in the urine, and as a diuretic. Less often it is used to treat diabetes, high
blood pressure, and as a cooling.
Containing hydrocyanic acid, coumarin, and an alkaloid, labonn fanm is
toxic to animals. Verna Slane 1987 |
