Yohimbine (/ j oʊ ˈ h ɪ m b iː n /), [2] also known as quebrachine, is an indole alkaloid derived from the bark of the African tree Pausinystalia johimbe; also from the bark of the unrelated South American tree Aspidosperma quebracho-blanco. Yohimbine is an α 2-adrenergic receptor antagonist, and has been used in a variety of research ...

Set of medicinal plants including yohimbe. Corynanthe johimbe, synonym Pausinystalia johimbe, common name yohimbe, is a plant species in the family Rubiaceae native to western and central Africa (Nigeria, Cabinda, Cameroon, Congo-Brazzaville, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea). [1]
[3] [4] This is in contrast to yohimbine and rauwolscine which have around 30-fold higher affinity for the α 2-adrenergic receptor over the α 1-adrenergic receptor. [3] [4] As a result, corynanthine is not a stimulant (or an aphrodisiac for that matter), but a depressant, and likely plays a role in the antihypertensive properties of Rauvolfia ...
