Ethnomedicinal use

Apparently added to ayahuasca (bark? root? Citation needed)

It is used as eyedrops by the Kaxinawa, using the juice (acqueous extraction? Squeezed 'resin'?) of the root and trunk scrapes, for the purpose of improving luck and concentration when hunting. Also when being stung by "tocandira" and stingray, topically applied. Also the latex from the bark is used for tooth ache, topically applied with some cloth, until the tooth falls out. (Ika Muru, 2014)

Much as T. rimulosa. The leaves, softened by fire, are applied to relieve rheumatic pains. In Pastaza, taken one week after delivery. "Pulp is used as a gargle for sore throat and colds". "Tikuna" mix the latex with water for eye wounds . "Jivaro" apply the bark juice to toothache. Considered sudorific, tonic, used for colds, obesity, rheumatism, syphilis. (Amazonian Ethnobotanical Dictionary)

Colombia: A mixture of latex and water can be used to cure eye wounds [375]. (Van Beek et al 1984)

Peru: In the upper part of the Amazon the plant has long been considereda panacea, the name sanango signifies a more or less all-purpose medicinal plant. In the Leticia area it is employed as a febrifuge, emetic, diuretic, calmative and for various minor ailments. A tepid decoction of the leaves and bark is used to wash wounds and afterwards powdered bark is put
over the wound; this is repeated three times a day for 10 days. A water extract of the root is drunk three times a day during 15 days against rheumatism and for wounds [ 375]. (Van Beek et al 1984)

Peru, Brazil: An infusion of the roots is used against rheumatic pains
[376]. (Van Beek et al 1984)


Alkaloid content: 1% alkaloids (sample from Satipo) - 7.5% alkaloids (sample from Tarapoto) of which Coronaridine 30-38% , Heyneanine 18-20% , 10% 19-Hydroxycoronaridine, 0-2% Ibogamine and 2-3% Voacangine (G. delle Monache et al 1977)



Alkaloid info and pharmacology (Van Beek et al 1984)
Coronoaridine
CAS: 467-77-6
338.44 g/mol
The alkaloid has been tested in the mouse, cat, dog, monkey and rat by a variety of pharmacological procedures. It showed autonomic and CNS activity. In mice it produced analgesia and was effective in suppressing rage caused by foot-shock. Toxicity in the anesthetised cat appeared to be associated with respiratory depression. Coronaridine was inactive in the 9 KB system in cell culture [ 150]. In a general pharmacological screening, the compound exhibited little activity [164]. A single 30 mg/kg p.o. dose of coronaridine prevented pregnancy in rats when given on day 1, 2, 3 or 4 after coitus. When given on day 5, 6, 7 or 8 of pregnancy, the results were only partially successful. The substance showed estrogenic activity, and it was this activity which appeared to be responsible for the antifertility action. However, the alkaloid was devoid of anti-estrogenic, androgenic, anti-androgenic, progestational, anti-progestational and uterine-stimulant

3-hydroxy-Coronaridine
CAS: 56867-69-7
354.19 g/mol
The substance had strong antibiotic activity [ 382]

Ibogamine
CAS: 481-87-8
280.41 g/mol
Central-stimulating properties were observed in a general pharmacological screening, and in mice, when administered S.C. together with Rididyl i.p., the alkaloid produced jactatio capitis [164]. On iv. injection into anesthetised guinea pigs, the effects observed were the same as with ibogaine (q.v.) [221]. Ibogamine was not active in the P-388 or KB test systems in cell culture [ 353]

Voacangine
CAS: 510-22-5
368.21 g/mol
In a general pharmacological screening, voacangine exhibited a slight central stimulating effect. The LDSo i.v. in the mouse was 54 mg/kg [ 164]. When injected i.v. into anesthetised guinea pigs it produced the same effects as did ibogaine (q.v.) [221]. Voacangine had no effect on the heart [ 178]. The alkaloid was not active in the P-388 and KB test systems in cell culture [353].

Information
T. sananho known locally as "kunakip" among the Aguaruna. Said to be "waimatai" (vision-producing).

Bark and roots are administered to dogs to improve hunting ability; route of administration (ROA): "inhaled in mouth, nose, fed". Used similarly by humans, but with different ROA (human ROA not specified). The bark is fed to dogs to treat lack of appetite (a use not seen in humans). The sap is applied topically to treat dermatitis in dogs and humans.

It would be good for someone to follow up on all those sources. This topic seems a bit messy to sort out, since there are so many different plants called sananho/sanango.

Also: Can anyone track down the original paper detailing which alkaloids were found in T. sananho? As far as I can tell, it's not online... but Italian sources with ridiculously long names aren't exactly my specialty. I can't even tell whether it's a book or a journal title.

My next post here will cover: Pharmacology of the T. sananho alkaloids.

I finally tried this yesterday, the sanango eyedrops from the Yawanawa people, during an ayahuasca ceremony. One drop to each eye... The moment it hits the eye, it takes about a second for it to start burning A LOT. It's a very intense piercing pain, my instinct was to contract muscles and hold my face with my hands, but my good friend who applied it passed his hand softly on my forehead and told me to try to relax.

The burning sensation lasted for maybe 5 minutes, but the first minute or two are the worse. Then the pain gives way to a lot of tears and clearing of synus, and a sensation of opened headspace and improved eyesight/deeper vision. This lasted for many hours, with a feeling of healing me too! Very special medicine!

..great to get some more first hand bioassay information..
and very glad you're having a deep time and are well in the jungle endlessness.. thank you for this report..

Amazing and special, enjoy!
The Yawanawas use it during hunts at night, for this vision improving effect.
I'll try it soon.
Great informative thread.

Yes agreed interesting stuff, especially the eye drops thing never heard of that before, thanks endlessness you think you have heard it all too sometimes

Endlessness

This is incredibly fascinating and has definitely sparked my interest in Tabernaemontana sananho, may I ask what is the method of preparation that the Yawanawa people use to make the eye drops?


Much Peace and Kindness

"I tried to change my name here to "Kambogahuascanga" due to this new found devotion to these sacred drops"

Just ask Trav if you want to change your name.

3-Hydroxycoronaridine

I hope the attatched file helps answer a few of the questions regarding needed info on 3-Hydroxycoronaridine. This is my 1st attempt to attatch a file. I hope it works and is useful. I am personally VERY interested in T. Iboga for reasons that shall become obvious in my posts in the near future.

zoom in

Has T. Undulata been analyzed by the community?

If not, I got three plants and might be able to produce some samples of leaf, stem and latex not too far into the future.

This sounds like a fascinating plant, I saw it mentioned on the website of the Takiwasi ayahuasca rehab center in Tarapoto Peru. I have poor eyesight and under active tear production. Kambogahuasca, do you think uchu sanango permanently improved your vision? How similar is it to Iboga? I will try to find some to work with soon.

I was also wondering if anybody knows how long this plant takes to be harvestable. The usually prohibitive price of T. Iboga outside of west Africa is because it takes around 5-7 years to produce ibogaine, and it was only recently introduced to the Americas. Perhaps Ushusanango would be easier to cultivate in South America since it is native and already established, especially if it matures sooner than iboga.

idk if this is the right place to post this but there is hardly any information on germinating this plant (T. Undulata) so I thought I would post some information here. I obtained my information from madplanter. Seeds came from WorldSeedSupply

I took some basic soil then put a hole in the center placed some spaghnum and placed the seed on top. 2-3 months later I had germination. These had a plastic covering for awhile, I noticed some fungus so I removed it, and allowed it to get water from the greenhouse irrigation. I believe I have 3 sprouts.

I tried making a spaghnum blanket for the other 3, that did not seem to work as far as I could tell, I am also trying 4 in a plastic bag filled with spaghnum to see if that works as well, someone on sharetheseeds suggested that to me.
