dar ya kan is a loanword coming from the persian form for potion tiryaq (greek : Theriakon), a very popular remedy and general antidote originating from Greece and popular in Europe until the 17th C. Formulas typically contain multiple exotic and expensive ingredients. In the tibetan context, musk (gla rtsi) is a key ingredient for dar ya kan. The Shel phreng mentiones that dar ya kan is a word from the Zhang zhung language and, out of many types, 25 are enumerated with their main ingredient.

A few species are reported to be directly named dar ya kan :
1. Lepidium latifolium L. (Brassicaceae) Peppercress (Dawa 2009)
