In Peninsular Malaysia, a decoction of the roots is taken for colic. A decoction is also taken as a post-partum medicine, and as a remedy for colds in children. In Sumatra, a decoction of the leaves is taken as a remedy for bloody diarrhoea or as a diuretic. In Cambodia a maceratopn in alcohol is reputed to be a stimulant and aphrodisiac.
