Verbascum thapsus
Mullein is a tall, woolly-leaved biennial plant found throughout Europe and Asia. It has a long history of use in European herbal medicine for respiratory conditions, particularly for dry coughs and ear infections. The leaves and flowers are the primary medicinal parts, known for their expectorant and demulcent properties.
Mullein (Verbascum thapsus) is a biennial herb traditionally used for respiratory conditions, particularly dry cough and ear infections. Its primary active compounds include saponins, mucilage, and flavonoids, which contribute to its expectorant and demulcent properties. Evidence level B supports its use for bronchitis and upper respiratory infections.
Mullein's saponins (e.g., verbascosaponin) act as expectorants by stimulating bronchial secretions and reducing mucus viscosity. Mucilage coats and soothes irritated mucous membranes, providing a demulcent effect. Flavonoids and aucubin exhibit anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities, potentially modulating NF-κB and COX pathways. Antimicrobial properties against respiratory pathogens have also been observed in vitro.
