Description
HEPATIS CAPSULES is a combination of herbs like the leaves of the
vasa plant contain the alkaloid vasicine (C11H12N2O),
The leaves of the vasa plant contain the alkaloid vasicine
(C11H12N2O), which is responsible for the small but persistent
bronchodilatation, and an essential oil which is chiefly
responsible for the expectorant action. The leaves and roots
contain other alkaloids, vasicinone, vasicinolone and vasicol,
which may contribute to the bronchodilatory effect through
anticholinergic action on the vagal innervation of the bronchii.
The bronchodilation effect is considerably increased after
atropine administration. Studies have also shown vasa to be
effective in the treatment of amlapitta (dyspepsia) and pyorrhea .
The in vitro growth of several strains of Mycoplasma tuberculosis
was inhibited by the essential oil at concentrations in the range
of 2-20 ug/ml. . There has also been a report of thrombopoetic
(platelet-increasing) activity with vasicine.
Antimicrobial activity of the essential oil of Tulsi has been
shown against M. tuberculosis and Staph aureus in vitro and other
bacteria and fungi. Eugenol and methyleugenol showed a positive
activity. Adaptogenic (antistress) activity has been found in mice
and rats. The plant increased the physical endurance and prevented
stress-induced ulcers. In general pharmacology the aqueous extract
showed hypotensive activity and inhibited the smooth muscle
contraction induced by acetylcholine, carbachol and histamine. It
also potentiated the hexobarbitone sleeping time. Protective
action against histamine-induced bronchospasm has been shown in
animals.
The active constituent of Haridra is known as curcumin. It has
been shown to have a wide range of therapeutic effects. First, it
protects against free radical damage because it is a strong
antioxidant. Second, it reduces inflammation. It accomplishes this
by reducing histamine levels and possibly by increasing production
of natural cortisone by the adrenal glands. Third, it protects the
liver from a number of toxic compounds. Fourth, it has been shown
to reduce platelets from clumping together, which in turn,
improves circulation and helps protect against atherosclerosis.
Numerous studies have also shown cancer-preventing effects of
curcumin. This may be due to its powerful antioxidant activity in
the body.
