Characteristics of the apocynaceae, or milkweed, family are a milky sap; leaves that are simple, opposite, or whorled; flowers that are large, colorful, and slightly fragrant with five contorted lobes; and fruits at grow in pairs. Rauwolfia is a genus of plants in the Apocynaceae family that contains active plant alkaloids, such as reserpine, some of which have been used as tranquilizers and as antihypertensive agents.
The root of the rauwolfia plant, specifically Rauvolfia serpentina, is used for medicinal purposes. It contains alkaloids, such as reserpine, which have been traditionally used to treat hypertension and mental health conditions. The roots are typically processed to extract these active compounds for therapeutic use.
The rareness of Serpentina, also known as Rauvolfia serpentina, can be attributed to habitat loss due to deforestation and agricultural expansion, which reduce its natural growing areas. Additionally, overharvesting for its medicinal properties, particularly in traditional medicine, has significantly impacted its population. Environmental changes, such as climate change and soil degradation, also threaten its survival, making conservation efforts crucial for its preservation.
