Alstonia scholaris (Linn.) R. Br., known commonly as saptaparni, has been used in Ayurvedic medicine as a natural treatment for various aches and pains. The authors of a study published in the journal BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine determined if these pain-relieving properties offered any benefits to sufferers of neuropathic pain.
The researchers concluded that Saptaparni can indeed attenuate neuropathic pain caused by CCI. This effect was attributed to the presence of kaempferol.
