In Amazonia, people employ Virola sebifera in several warm preparations. In the Siona–Kofan region of southern Colombia and adjacent Ecuador, people drink a tea made from young leaves as a febrifuge; leaf infusion is also taken for respiratory congestion and flu‑like illnesses (Bennett et al., 2021). Among the Achuar of northeastern Peru and eastern Ecuador, leaf infusions are prepared for head colds and general fever; Kofan practitioners also give leaf tea to children with malaria and viral fevers (Bennett et al., 2021; 2023). In southern Peru, ethnographers recorded that leaf tea is drunk for fever and colds, and an infusion of the inner bark is used for “bad blood” and to settle the stomach (Schultes, 1984). Throughout much of western Amazonia, especially in Colombia, Peru, and Brazil, a decoction of the inner bark is taken for fever, often with the expectation that it also helps with pain and shortness of breath; some Huambisa communities boil the leaves for a similar fever tea (Plowman, 1979; Bennett et al., 2021). A 1:5 ethanol tincture of dried inner bark—approximately 50 g of powdered bark macerated in 250 ml of 50% ethanol for 2–3 weeks, shaken daily—has been described for internal use as an analgesic and febrifuge; mild skin poultices of moistened powdered bark are sometimes applied topically for bruises (Schultes, 1984; Alvaro Franco et al., 2002).

Practical preparation: a simple leaf tea can be made from 6–8 fresh young leaves, rinsed and bruised slightly, added to 250 ml of just‑boiled water, covered, and steeped for 10–15 minutes; a second infusion may be taken later the same day. For a bark decoction, simmer 15–20 g of dried inner bark in 500 ml of water for 20–30 minutes, let cool, and drink 150–200 ml of the filtrate once daily as needed. Ethnobotanical literature emphasizes short courses of 1–3 days for fevers, and many communities advise against daily prolonged use (Schultes, 1984; Bennett et al., 2021).

Well‑established constituents have been isolated from V. sebifera leaves and inner bark: O‑methyl nomilinic acid, the lignans (−)-syringaresinol and (−)-secoisolariciresinol, the flavonoid p‑hydroxybenzoic acid, plus sucrose and glucose in the seeds (Kaplan et al., 1985; Tschesche et al., 1974; Weniger et al., 1994). These compounds are consistent with the mild fever‑reducing, analgesic, and astringent actions attributed to warm leaf teas and bark decoctions in the sources above.

Although V. sebifera is not a commercial medicinal plant today, fieldwork and old ethnographies continue to show that people across Andean‑Amazonian regions still prepare infusions and decoctions of leaves or bark for fevers and colds (Bennett et al., 2021; 2023).
