Parthenium hysterophorus

It is commonly called as bitter-broom, congress grass, escoba amargo. It is a plant up to 1.0 m in height, that is native to the American tropics, but also seen in almost all over India and other countries like Australia, parts of Africa, etc. In India, it was first present as a contaminant in imported wheat. Since then it is reported in this sub-continent to trigger allergies, specially air-borne contact dermatitis (ABCD) and is a common cause of pollen allergy. To counter its toxic and allergic effects, homoeopaths started using this drug in homoeopathic doses. Earlier E. P. Anshutz, A. Blackwood, W. Boericke, J. H. Clarke, A. H.
