Description

Hypericum

Hypericum perforatum (St. John’s wort), as juices, extracts, teas, tinctures, oleums, powders, and granules, use as oral medication and a vulnerary since record history.

Hypericum extracts that meet recognized standards are indicate therapeutics for mild to moderate depression. There is peer-reviewe medical literature to support efficacy for this indication.

The side effects of St. John’s wort extracts are generally less than those reported in double-blind studies for nonphytopharmaceuticals. Hypericum oleums are use as vulneraries, and there is evidence they promote uncomplicate cicatrization of wounds.

Oleums of hypericum have antimicrobial action. Hypericum extracts upregulate and downregulate gut and hepatic CYP enzymes and xenobiotic transporters, and by these mechanisms they can alter the pharmacokinetics and efficacy of concurrent medications.

The dose-limiting side effects are photosensitization and gastrointestinal symptoms.
