All parts of the plant may be used for the treatment of the diseases rim-tshad, mkhris-tshad, and tsha-ba of the small intestine. Bong-dkar is also valued as a useful remedy against snake and scorpion poison. Aconitum heterophyllum grows in the northwestern Himalayas at altitudes of 2000 to 4500 m. Morphological details of the plant and anatomical characteristics of the above-ground parts are given. The main anatomical characteristics are three types of unicellular hairs, unequally sized epidermis cells of the leaf and a sclerenchyma belt in the stem.
