Trema orientale, commonly called charcoal‑tree, is a woody shrub/tree whose bark, leaves, and powdered leaves are used in traditional medicine. It is applied topically and orally for conditions such as inflammation, burns, arthritis, abdominal pain, menstrual pain, skin infections, and wounds, and it has been used as a febrifuge and for anti‑helminthic, anti‑cancer, antidiabetic, hepatoprotective, and antioxidant purposes. Because it can cause skin irritation or interact with medications, it should be used under professional guidance, especially by pregnant women, individuals with liver concerns, or those on other treatments.
