Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2

Agastache urticifolia, commonly known as nettle-leaf giant hyssop or horsemint, has a traditional history of use among various Native American tribes and herbalists. Historical records, such as those compiled in ethnobotanical literature (notably by Daniel Moerman), indicate that this plant was used by tribes such as the Shoshoni and others to address gastrointestinal issues, including nausea and vomiting. The leaves were sometimes brewed into a tea or used as a medicinal infusion for stomach complaints. However, there is a lack of modern scientific studies or clinical trials directly evaluating the efficacy or mechanisms of Agastache urticifolia for treating nausea and vomiting. The support for its use in this context remains rooted in traditional herbal medicine instead of validated pharmacological research. As such, while there is a well-documented historical precedent, the overall strength of evidence is limited due to the absence of robust clinical or pharmacological data.
