Rauwolfia extract is a naturally occurring drug that has been used for centuries in ancient India.

In traditional herbal medicine, rauwolfia extract was brewed as a tea and used in humans to treat hypertension, insanity, snakebite, and cholera. The purified alkaloid, rauwolfia extract , was isolated in 1952 and is considered the first modern drug for the treatment of hypertension.

Eventually, catecholamine depletion occurs because of the body's inability to store these neurotransmitters.
