The official Siddha catalogue’s indexed 2026 text describes dried rhizome and stolon. Kew also records Nagarmotha with another accepted species, Cyperus scariosus. This page follows the Cyperus rotundus reference without claiming that a shared trade name or photograph proves the supplied species.

Mustā or Musta is the Ayurvedic rhizome reference name, and Mustaka is recorded by IISc. The current supplier species is not independently authenticated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs all Nagarmotha the same Cyperus species?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Kew medicinal-name records associate Nagarmotha with more than one accepted Cyperus species, including Cyperus rotundus and Cyperus scariosus. They are not simply interchangeable names for one species. Request supplier identification if exact botanical identity is essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs Nagarmotha a root, rhizome, oil or live plant?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe listed raw drug is dried rhizome\/stolon material, rather than a generic root. Natural and Powder are the available forms here. This page does not offer essential oil, a standardized extract or a live plant, and raw material is not interchangeable with those products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat are Nagarmotha’s verified names in other languages?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIISc records Hindi Nagarmotha\/Motha, Sanskrit Mustaka, Kannada Badra mushti\/Tunge hullu\/Jai, Telugu Tunga and Malayalam Muthanga\/Karimuttan\/Kuzhimuthanga for Cyperus rotundus. Names identify the reference plant rather than certifying the actual retail batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow can I use Nagarmotha powder for hair?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA raw rhizome powder is different from a formulated hair product or an essential oil. Confirm the actual pack’s intended external-use specification and follow an appropriate preparation’s instructions. Avoid eyes and damaged skin, stop if irritation occurs, and do not expect a guaranteed hair-growth or scalp-treatment result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I take Nagarmotha powder daily for its benefits?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo universal medicinal dose or guaranteed health benefit is established for this pack. Traditional ingredient use is not proof of a retail product’s treatment effect. Obtain qualified guidance for internal or medicinal use, especially for children, pregnancy, breastfeeding, medicines or an ongoing condition, and continue prescribed care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhich Nagarmotha form and pack should I buy, and how do I store it?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose Natural material if you want to inspect or grind it, or Powder for an already ground form.
