Origin - USA

Coltsfoot received its name because the leaves of the plant resemble a colt's foot. Because the leaves and flowers contain mucilage, they are used to make infusions, washes and poultices to sooth minor skin irritations.

Infuse in oil to produce salves, balms and ointments. May also be tinctured or water-infused for use in other topical preparations.

coltsfoot flower and leaf are used topically to take advantage of its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory compounds. Other constituents in the herb, however, namely the pyrrolizidine alkaloids senecionine and senkirkine, make this herb unsuitable for internal use due potential liver toxicity.
