Oleander is a medically used plant. Experiments are done in cancer drugs. Oleandrin which is in the chemical content of oleander is used medically. Included are diuretic and heart strengthening effects. If the prescribed amount of treatment is exceeded, it causes severe poisoning which is manifested by heart failure, vomiting and diarrhea.
These medications are given only by the doctor's supervision. The maceration with olive oil is externally applied to the skin. It is used against parasites such as biting in the body.
