Abstract
In 1853, Waltz discovered two glucosides in a lily of the valley - convallamarin and convallarin. Subsequent experimental and clinical observations showed that the first glucoside is similar in pharmacological properties to the action of digitalin, but was not used due to the inconstancy of its action; the second glucoside, without acting on the heart and blood vessels, irritates the intestines, causing diarrhea.
