Medicinal uses

Chemical structure of berberine, an alkaloid found in B. aristata
In India, B. aristata is used in traditional herbal medicine. Its stem, roots, and fruits are used in Ayurveda.

A preparation called rasaunt is prepared by boiling the bark of the root and of the lower part of the stem in water. The solution is then strained and evaporated until a semi-solid mass, rasaunt, is obtained. It is mixed with either butter and alum, or with opium and lime-juice.
