Artemisia indica
South and Southeast Asian mugwort species used in Ayurveda and Indonesian Jamu medicine.
Artemisia indica, commonly known as Indian mugwort, is a South and Southeast Asian species used in Ayurveda and Jamu medicine. Its primary applications include menstrual regulation, digestive support, and antimicrobial therapy, with key active compounds such as thujone, camphor, cineole, and flavonoids contributing to its pharmacological effects.
The herb's emmenagogue action is primarily attributed to thujone, a GABA-A receptor antagonist that can stimulate uterine contractions. Camphor and cineole exhibit antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties via inhibition of bacterial cell wall synthesis and modulation of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes. Flavonoids contribute antioxidant and spasmolytic effects, while artemisin (a sesquiterpene lactone) may provide additional antiparasitic activity. The overall profile supports traditional uses but requires caution due to thujone's neurotoxicity at high doses.
