Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Arisaema amurense, known as Chinese cobra lily or "Tiannanxing" (天南星), has a long history of use in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). In TCM, it is often used to "resolve phlegm," "dispel wind," and "relieve convulsions." Dizziness in TCM is frequently attributed to internal wind, phlegm, or obstruction of meridians. As such, Arisaema amurense is incorporated into herbal formulas addressing these traditional causes of dizziness or vertigo. However, scientific studies specifically validating its effectiveness for dizziness are lacking. Most available research focuses on its toxicity, anti-inflammatory, or anticancer properties, not on its effects in treating dizziness or vertigo. Thus, its use for dizziness is based primarily on TCM theory and clinical tradition, not on modern clinical trials or pharmacological research. The evidence rating is low (1/5), reflecting the absence of rigorous scientific evaluation for this specific indication, though there is clear documentation of its traditional application in TCM texts and practice.
