Verwenden
Agrimony in the form of tea or gargle is used to treat a sore throat. Agrimony may be used topically as an astringent, to help stop bleeding, and to treat cuts and abrasions. Little research exists on its use in humans. Some herbalists report that agrimony has antiasthmatic, sedative, antiinfl ammation, decongestant, and diuretic properties, although no scientifi c studies support these claims. Diuretic and uricosuric use have been reported (Giachetti et al, 1986). Most other uses are based solely on anecdotal reports. However, agrimony has been used for decades as a hemostatic to promote blood coagulation. It has been used to decrease vaginal bleeding and discharge and for urinary tract infections. Ointments made from agrimony may shrink hemorrhoids and soothe sores, insect bites, and athlete's foot. It may be used for its antibacterial action to treat vaginal trichomoniasis. Agrimony is used in combination with licorice root, fennel seed, and eyebright as an eyewash (Mills, Bone 2005).
