It is also used as a stomach tonic, to stimulate the function of the gastrointestinal tract, for dyspepsia (indigestion), for fevers and to promote perspiration.
It showed profound effects on sleep-wake stages suggesting potential sedative effects.

Pharmacology

Stachytarpheta cayennensis - Verbena (Gervao) tincture only for US18.65 per 2 fl oz. Alcoholic and n-butanolic extracts of dried leaves of Stachytarpheta cayennensis were assessed in anti-inflammatory- and antinociceptive models.
The results indicate that S. cayennensis shows anti-inflammatory properties which seems to be due, at least partly, to the inhibition of bradykinin (causes blood vessels to enlarge) and histamine (produced as part of a local immune response to cause inflammation). The extracts also exhibited antinociceptive activity.

Parts of Stachytarpheta cayennensis were tested for their effects on gastric secretion, gastric motility, inflammation and pain in rodents, with the purpose of validating the plant's ethno-medical uses.
The results confirmed folk information indicating presence of analgesic, mild laxative and potent inhibition of gastric secretion activities in extracts of S. cayennensis.

The leaf extract possesses significant antiplasmodial activity which confirms its use in folkloric medicine in the treatment of malaria.
Gervao has considerable mean survival time, comparable to that of the standard antimalaria drug Chloroquine.
