Emerging therapeutic role of Prunella vulgaris in thyroid disease
2022 Jul Chinese Herbal Medicines Zhang W, Wuhan Q, Na M, Hu R, Mu Q, Bao X
Herbs such as P. vulgaris have great potential for treating thyroid disorders owing to their anti-oxidation and immunological effects and are frequently used as ingredients in herbal recipes. P. vulgaris is thought to combat drug toxicity within the body, therefore its own active ingredients have attracted much attention. The use of P. vulgaris with other drugs resulted in significant elimination of swollen nodules, reduced inflammatory response, and improved thyroid function. These effects of P. vulgaris benefit the clinical treatment of thyroid disease while having reduced drug-induced side effects and improved therapeutic effects. However, with only a few studies presenting treatment with Prunella vulgaris alone, further investigation is needed to to explore the physiological mechanisms.
