Devendraji, is it not the same plant the fruit of which is used in 'desi' medicine for diabetes?

Hello folks,
Given below is the page from a Homeopathy program that shows the
medicinal values of Colocynthis.
Colocynthis (Coloc.)
Bitter Cucumber
Often indicated in the transition season when the air is cold,
but the sun is still powerful enough to heat the blood.
Develops most of its symptoms in the abdomen and head, causing
intense neuralgias. It is especially suitable for irritable persons
easily angered, and ill effects therefrom. Women with copious
menstruation, and of sedentary habits. Persons with a tendency to
corpulency. The neuralgic pains are nearly always relieved by
pressure. Cramps and twitching and shortening of muscles.
Constrictions and contractions. Cystospasm following operations on
orifices. [Hyper.] Urinous odor or perspiration. [Berb.; Nit-ac.]
Agonizing pain in abdomen, causing patient to bend double, is most
characteristic. Sensations: Cutting, twisting, grinding, contracting
and bruised; as if clamped with iron bands.
Mind. Extremely irritable. Becomes angry when questioned.
Mortification caused by offense. Anger, with indignation. [Cham.;
Bry.; Nux-v.]
Head. Vertigo when turning head to the left. Lateral cutting
headache, with nausea, vomiting. Pains (better pressure and heat),
with soreness of scalp. Burning pains, digging, rending, and tearing.
Frontal headache; worse, stooping, lying on back, and moving eyelids.
Eyes. Pains sharp, boring, better pressure. Sensation on
stooping, as if eye would fall out. Gouty affections of eyes. Violent
pain in eyeballs which precede the development of glaucoma.
Face. Tearing, shooting, and swelling of face; left side great
soreness. Get relief from pressure. [Chin.] Neuralgia, with
chilliness; teeth seems too long. Sounds reecho in ears. Pain in
stomach, always with pain of teeth or head.
Stomach. Very bitter taste. Tongue rough, as from sand, and
feels scalded. Canine hunger. Feeling in stomach as if something would
not yield; drawing pain.
Abdomen. Agonizing cutting pain in abdomen causing patient to
bend over double, and pressing on the abdomen. Sensation as if stones
were being ground together in the abdomen, and would burst. Intestines
feel as if bruised. Colic with cramps in calves. Cutting in abdomen,
especially after anger. Each paroxysm is attended with general
agitation and a chill over the cheeks, ascending from the
hypogastrium. Pain in small spot below navel. Dysenteric stool renewed
each time by the least food or drink. Jelly-like stools. Musty odor.
Distention.
Female. Boring pain in ovary. Must draw up double, with great
restlessness. Round, small cystic tumors in ovaries or broad
ligaments. Wants abdomen supported by pressure. Bearing-down cramps,
causing her to bend double. [Op.]
Urine. Intense burning along urethra during stool. Vesical
catarrh, discharge like fresh white of egg. Viscid. [Ph-ac.] Fetid;
small quantities, with frequent urging. Itching at orifice. Red, hard
crystals, adhering firmly to vessel. Tenesmus of bladder. Pains on
urinating over whole abdomen.
Extremities. Contraction of muscles. All the limbs are drawn
together. Pain in right deltoid. Cramp-like pain in hip; lies on
affected side; pain from hip to knee. Spontaneous luxation of the hip
joints. Stiffness of joints and shortening of tendons. Sciatic pain,
left side, drawing, tearing; better, pressure and heat; worse, gentle
touch. Contraction of the muscles. Pain down right thigh; muscles and
tendons feel too short; numbness with pains. Pain in left knee joint.
Modalities. Worse, from anger and indignation. Better,
doubling up, hard pressure, warmth, lying with head bent forward.
Relationship. Antidote: Coff.; Staph.; Cham. Colocynthis is
the best antidote to lead poisoning. (Royal).
Compare: Dios.; Cham.; Cocc.; Merc.; Mag-p.
Dose. Sixth to thirtieth potency.
