Abstract
Adhatoda vasica is a small sub-herbaceous bush which grows all over the plains of India and is extensively used in indigenous medicine as a remedy for colds, cough, bronchitis and asthma. Hooper (1888) carried out its chemical analysis and found that it contained an odorous volatile principle and an alkaloid called vasicine. The alkaloid was found to have no action on tubercle bacilli (Chopra et al., 1925).
