| Safety Rating | Conditionally Safe |
| Evidence Level | limited |
Trichosanthes tricuspidata is a vine in the cucumber family, whose dried fruit, seeds and stem are traditionally processed into decoctions or powders. It is commonly used as a diuretic and antipyretic, and in folk medicine to relieve urinary tract problems, swelling, fever, and mild digestive discomfort. Because safety data are limited, the plant can cause dizziness or mild laxative effects, and it is generally advised to avoid use during pregnancy or with blood‑pressure medications; speak with a healthcare professional before using it.
