The dried flower-heads of two species, Anthemis nobilis (Chamaemelum nobile) and Matricaria recutita, have specific use as herbs. They are administered as TEA, extracts, tinctures, or OINTMENTS. Chamomile contains CHOLINE; COUMARINS; cyanogenic glycosides, FLAVONOIDS, salicylate derivatives, TANNINS, and volatile oils (OILS, VOLATILE).

The leaves and flowers. -Anthemis, Ph. U. S.-have a strong smell, and bitter, nauseous taste. The flowers are chiefly used. They possess tonic and stomachic properties, and are much given as a pleasant and cheap bitter. A simple infusion is taken to produce, or to assist vomiting. Externally, they are often used in fomentations. The Oleum Anthemidis possesses the aromatic properties of the plant, but not the bitter and tonic. Consequently, the 'Chamomile Drops' as sold by the druggists, must be devoid of the latter qualities.
