Description:
Natural Order, Labiatae. The root of hoarhound is perennial, while the stem is annual, growing in bushy tufts.
Stem erect, one to two feet high, four sided, branching, looking gray from a fine woolly pubescence with which
it is covered. Leaves round-ovate, wrinkled, crenate-toothed, petiolate, hoary beneath.
Properties:
Large quantities sometimes act on the bowels. The better mode of employing it for recent colds, is by infusing an ounce in a quart of warm water, of which from one to three fluid ounces may be given every hour or two. It enters into combination with various relaxing expectorants to form cough sirups, and is an ingredient of the Compound Sirup of Aralia.
Function:
This herb is stimulating and relaxant, acting rather diffusively, but leaving behind a permanent impression which is somewhat tonic and astringent
A cold infusion creates a warm impression through the lungs, favors the ejection of viscid mucus, and sustains the vocal organs in congestion and hoarseness
