Effect on CNS: In animal studies:  this herb can lower 5-Hydroxyindole acetic Acid (5-HIAA), dopamine, 3, 4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC), and homovanillic acid. This shows that the herb shi chang pu can sedate the CNS through lowering  monoamine of neurotransmitters. The ethanol extract of this herb can  counter the highest threshold of mice and rats in electrical shock and lowest threshold in pentetrazole, seizure reaction of strychnine, thus it shows that shi chang pu possesses anti-seizure effect. The total evaporating of of shi chang pu are the main ingredients that can promote sedative, hypnotic, and anti-seizure effect. The main active ingredients are β-asarone and α-asarone that produce the above effects. The extract of shi chang pu can enhance the learning and memory of mice and bring up the threshold of endurance of lack of oxygen.

Cardio-vascular effect: corrects arrhythmia and slows down heart rate. One of the ingredients of chang pu, bisasarin possesses good lowering of lipid effect. It can be absorbed quickly and it can distribute widely in the body and dissipates slowly. In past studies, it shows that the evaporating oil of chang pu can be used to treat the arrhythmia of rats caused by aconitine of wu tou. It can lower the heart rate of domesticated rabbits' irregular heart rate caused by epinephrine and by barium chloride. .

Effect on respiratory system: improves asthma and chronic bronchitis. There are reports that show α-Asarone, an important ingredient of chang pu, can be used to treat simple form of chronic bronchitis, asthmatic type of chronic bronchitis or asthmatic bronchitis, whether it is early stage of attack, chronic stage or sudden acute stage.

According to the all the herb dictionaries of the past in China, the original correct herb, shi chang pu came from the roots of Acorus calamus var angustatus . The rhizoma is small and it has nine sections per Chinese inch.

Today the in the market it is substituted with the root of Anemone altaica Fisch. The roots are shorter, spindle shape,  and sections are closer and are easier to break. The broken surfaces are flat. Currently the correct herb of Acorus calamus var angustatus is being mentioned in literature but is not available commercially.

The function of shi chuang pu Acorus calamus var angustatus is for ridding of dampness and harmonizing (soothing) the stomach. The two herbs should not be interchanged.

正品九節 菖蒲按歷代本 草所述經考証為 藥典收載之天南星科植物石菖蒲Acorus calamus var angustatus 的 根莖,惟體小節 密,一寸有九節 者,此方為石菖蒲的優質品。

現在市售九節 菖蒲則皆毛莨科植物阿爾泰銀蓮花Anemone altaica Fisch.的 根莖。其根莖短小,稍彎曲,長1-4cm,直徑0.3-O.5cm。表面棕黃色至暗棕色,具多數半環狀突起的節(鱗葉痕),斜向交互排列。質堅脆,斷面平 坦,白色,有粉性,可見淡黃色小點(維管束)6-9個排列成環。氣微,味微酸。

由上對照可知,天南星科植物石菖蒲為本草所述及《中國藥典 》(85版)所載正品。南星科九節 菖蒲只有記載如今 並無商品。在功效上,石菖蒲主化濕和中。

水菖蒲(Acorus calamus)與石菖蒲功效略相同:化痰,開竅,健脾,利濕。

阿爾泰銀蓮花之節菖蒲Anemone altaica Fisch.)植物成分有抗腫瘤、抗炎 、解熱鎮痛、鎮靜、抗驚厥等作用。與水 菖蒲(Acorus calamus),石菖蒲 Acorus calamus var angustatus 有差別 ,因此,應嚴格區分,不可以此代彼。
