pareira

释义

pareira|pəˈrɛərə|
[ad. Pg. parreira vine trained against a wall; whence parreira brava wild climbing vine, the name given to the Brazilian plant.]
A drug made of the root of a Brazilian shrub, used in disorders of the urinary passages. Originally understood to be the root of the climbing shrub Cissampelos Pareira or ‘Velvet-leaf’, the parreira brava of the Portuguese, whence the name: now said to be that of a different shrub, Chondrodendron tomentosum; the ‘Velvet-leaf’ being distinguished by some as Spurious Pareira.
(The fact is that, historically, the latter is the real pareira, ‘pareira’ of pharmacy being a misnomer.)
