Hello, This is indeed Rauvolfia tetraphylla. However it is not the real sarpagandha. That is Rauvolfia serpentina. It is used as hypotensive and in mental disturbances. The reserpine content in R. tetraphylla is considerably less than that in R. serpentina hence it is of lesser value than R. serpentina.
