Salix alba
White willow bark is the original source of salicylic acid from which aspirin was derived. It has been used for pain and fever since the time of Hippocrates. The bark contains a complex of salicylates that work synergistically, providing a gentler and more sustained effect than isolated aspirin.
White willow (Salix alba) bark is the historical source of salicylic acid, used for millennia to treat pain and fever. Its active compounds, including salicin and salicortin, provide analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects with a gentler profile than aspirin. Evidence level B supports its use for chronic low back pain, osteoarthritis, and headaches.
Salicin is metabolized to salicylic acid, which inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) enzymes, reducing prostaglandin synthesis and inflammation. Flavonoids and tannins contribute additional antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions. The complex of salicylates may modulate pain via peripheral and central pathways, with less gastrointestinal irritation than isolated aspirin.
