The cnidium seeds have antiseptic and disinfectant properties and are often used as an ingredient in lotions, powders or ointments for external uses as remedies for skin conditions such as eczema, ringworm and scabies.

The seeds are considered particularly valuable in diseases related to sexual organs, such as vaginal inflammation (vaginitis) and vaginal discharge.

The herb is effective against many strains of yeast (Candida), and it is often prescribed as a natural treatment for vaginal yeast infection.

Clinical studies in China indicate that the plant could be helpful as a treatment for vaginal inflammation caused by trichomoniasis a common sexually transmitted disease caused by the protozoan parasite Trichomonas vaginalis.
