Henriette Lackner
Robert H. Goetz

Abstract

Although Rauwolfia serpentina has been widely used in India for many years, it is only since Vakil's paper in 1949 that this drug has aroused pharmacological interest and has come into general medical use in the treatment of hypertension. During the few years that have elapsed since the first report on this subject a large volume of literature has accumulated and a number of different preparations have become available for the treatment of hypertension.
