What is Sida cordifolia used for?
Sida cordifolia contains ephedrine, which is an amphetamine-like stimulant. Despite serious safety concerns, people use Sida cordifolia for asthma, allergies, fatigue, erectile dysfunction, common cold, and many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses. In herbal combinations, Sida cordifolia is used for weight loss, erectile dysfunction (ED), sinus problems, allergy, throat diseases, asthma, and bronchitis. These combinations are also used to burn fat, increase energy, and promote strong bones.
