Jegura

Jegura was a cactus whose juices were used for medicinal purposes. Applied to the skin, it caused a deep numbing effect which was so powerful it could only be applied once a day. Too much of the juice could cause the heart and lungs to fail.Deadhouse Gates, Chapter 2, US HC p.74
The name was derived from the Seven Cities (Bisbrha and Debrahl) language.Deadhouse Gates, Glossary, UK MMPB p.936
It is unclear if the Jegura cactus was related to the Weeping Jegurra cactus or possibly synonymous with it. 
==In Deadhouse Gates==
Mappo Runt used the cactus to ward off the pain of wounds inflicted by a Leopard D'ivers in the Pan'potsun Odhan.
