Mechanism of Action
Rauwolfia contains several bioactive compounds including: Reserpine,
Ajmaline, Serpentine, Yohimbine, Rescinnamine.
Reserpine: Lowers blood pressure by depleting catecholamines from sympathetic nerve
findings, leading to vasodilation & reduced cardiac output.
Ajmaline: Used mainly for arrythmia by blocking sodium channels, which slows cardiac
conduction & stabilizes heart rhythms.
Serpentine: It exhibits sedative properties which help alleviate conditions like anxiety &
insomnia. It helps to reduce blood pressure through central nervous system modulation.
Rescinnamine: It functions as an ACE inhibitor, blocking the conversion of angiotensin
1 to angiotensin 2, a potent vasoconstrictor. This leads to vasodilation & a subsequent
reduction in blood pressure.
