A. calamus (Acoraceae) or jeriangau is a medicinal plant that has a rhizome. Jeriangau is used as a raw material for traditional medicine for various therapeutic purposes.

Jeriangau rhizome has anti-spasmodic, aromatic, expectorant, anti-nausea, sedative properties, stimulant effects, mental illness, diarrhea, and bronchitis. Jeriangau essential oil serves as a pain reliever for toothaches and headaches. The rhizome of the Jeriangau plant contains 1,2,4-trimethoxy-5-(1-prophenyl)-benzene essential oil or better known as asarone.
