Lobeline

A piperidine alkaloid, the main active component of lobelia (Lobelia inflata), a North American plant. Its effects resemble those of nicotine, and in the past it was used in preparations for respiratory complaints and to help people stop smoking. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities and other impurities.

Did you know?Lobelia is also called Indian tobacco because Native Americans smoked its leaves and used them as a remedy for breathing problems; lobeline was isolated in 1921 by the German chemist Heinrich Wieland.
