Parsley Piert

Parsley piert is stated to possess diuretic and demulcent properties, and to dissolve urinary deposits. Traditionally, it has been used for kidney and bladder calculi, dysuria, strangury, edema of renal and hepatic origin, and specifically for renal calculus.

Preemergence control of lawn burweed (Grant et al., 1990 Johnson and Murphy, 1995), henbit (Minner, 1994), short buttercup, hop clover, curly dock, and buckhom plantain (Grant et al., 1990 Chandran et al., 1998) has been reported with isoxaben. However, control appears to be rate dependent with such species as curly dock and parsley-piert. 

As a reliable tonic diuretic, the medicine is much appreciated in kidney and bladder disorders, whether acute or chronic. Although frequently successful when taken alone, it is more usually prescribed with other agents such as Parsley Piert, Uva Ursi, and Buchu. The berries are sometimes included with suitable alteratives in formula for rheumatic complaints.
