Bergenia ciliata
Alpine herb of Himalayan mountains; used in Ayurveda and traditional Tibetan medicine for kidney stones — name literally means "stone breaker".
Pashanbheda (Bergenia ciliata) is a Himalayan alpine herb traditionally used in Ayurveda and Tibetan medicine as a lithotriptic for kidney stones, earning its name 'stone breaker'. Its primary active compounds include bergenin, afzelechin, catechin, tannins, arbutin, and mucilage, which contribute to diuretic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial effects. Evidence for its efficacy is limited (Level C), with most support from traditional use and preliminary clinical studies.
The lithotriptic action of Pashanbheda is attributed to bergenin and arbutin, which inhibit calcium oxalate crystal aggregation and promote crystal dissolution via modulation of urinary pH and citrate levels. Its diuretic effect is mediated by increased renal blood flow and inhibition of aquaporin channels, while anti-inflammatory activity involves suppression of COX-2 and NF-κB pathways. Antimicrobial properties are linked to tannins and catechins that disrupt bacterial cell membranes and inhibit adhesion to uroepithelium.
