Madagascar Periwinkle as a Medicinal Plant

Catharanthusroseus has been a centuries old remedy for things like diabetes and asthma. It has also been a folk remedy for high blood pressure, menstruation irregularities, and for constipation. Today, there are Madagascar periwinkle extracts. These extras have been used in the treatment of skin cancer, breast cancer, and leukemia. Other cancers, such as lymph cancer and Hodgkin’s disease, have used the extracts as well.

Warnings for Catharanthusroseus

The plant is poisonous. Those that have used it for a cancer help, even those under a doctor’s care, have reported bad side effects. Ingestion or inhalation of the smoke is toxic.
