Alisma plantago-aquatica subsp. orientale (Sam.) Sam.

Alisma orientale, commonly known as Asian water plantain[1] is a flowering plant species in the genus Alisma found in Asia.

Alisma orientale is sometimes treated as a variety of Alisma plantago-aquatica (Alisma plantago-aquatica var. orientale).[2][3] The rhizomes of A. orientale have been used as a traditional Chinese medicine, ze xie.[4] However, it may have serious side effects or even toxic effects such as hepatotoxicity.[5] The rhizome of the plant is also a herb used in kampo Japanese medicine.

The seed contains cis-aconitic anhydride ethyl ester and cis-2,4,5-trihydroxycinnamic acid.[6]
