Medicinal use

In the mythological tradition the discovery of the hallucinogenic properties of white henbane (Hyoscyamus albus) has been attributed to the Greek divine hero Heracles. Doctors of the Hippocratic school of medicine gave an infusion of the seeds in wine in cases of fever, tetanus and female disorders, for example, where paralysis occurred after childbirth, Dioscorides used both seed and leaves pounded and soaked with hot water to deaden pain and preferred white henbane (Hyoscyamus albus) to other species more likely to cause madness and induce sleep.[7]
