Hydrastine is a natural alkaloid which was discovered in 1851 by Alfred P. Durand. By hydrolysis of hydrastine one receives Hydrastinine, which was patented by Bayer as a haemostatic drug during 1910s.

It is naturally present in Hydrastis canadensis (thus the name) and other plants of the ranunculaceae.
