A passage from Medicinal Plants of the Western Mountain States:

Toadflax is one of the stronger Figwort family (alternatively placed in the Plantain family) plant medicines of the West. More potent than related Penstemon and Figwort, yet not quite as harsh as the more eastern growing Culver’s root (Leptandra), well dosed, Toadflax is able to modify a whole range of gastrointestinal and hepatic issues.
