And Dose-Dependent Effect of Psyllium on Serum Lipids in Mild-To-Moderate Hypercholesterolemia: a Meta-Analysis of Controlled Clinical Trials
European Journal of Clinical Nutrition (2009) 63, 821–827 & 2009 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0954-3007/09 $32.00 www.nature.com/ejcn ORIGINAL ARTICLE Time- and dose-dependent effect of psyllium on serum lipids in mild-to-moderate hypercholesterolemia: a meta-analysis of controlled clinical trials Z-h Wei1, H Wang1, X-y Chen, B-s Wang, Z-x Rong, B-s Wang, B-h Su and H-z Chen Department of Pharmacology and Biostatistics, Institute of Medical Sciences, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China Objectives: Evidences from randomized clinical trials and meta-analysis have claimed an association between the use of soluble dietary fiber from psyllium and a cholesterol-lowering effect. However, there is still uncertainty as to the dose–response relationship and its long-term lipid-lowering efficacy. This meta-analysis was primarily conducted to address the dose–response relationship between psyllium and serum cholesterol level and time-dependent effect of psyllium in mild-to-moderate hypercholesterolemic subjects. Methods: Twenty-one studies, which enrolled a total of 1030 and 687 subjects receiving psyllium or placebo, respectively, were included in the meta-analysis. The studies were randomized placebo-controlled trials, double blinded or open label, on subjects with mild-to-moderate hypercholesterolemia. The dose of psyllium was between 3.0 and 20.4 g per day and intervention period was more than 2 weeks. Any type of diet background was permitted. Diet lead-in period was between 0 and 8 weeks. Results: Compared with placebo, consumption of psyllium lowered serum total cholesterol by 0.375 mmol/l (95% CI: 0.257– 0.494 mmol/l), and LDL cholesterol by 0.278 mmol/l (95% CI: 0.213–0.312 mmol/l).

Herb-Drug Interaction, Herbs, Counseling, Herbal Preparation INTRODUCTION Matter, Etc
International Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Vol. 1, Supply 1, Nov.-Dec. 2009 Review Article HERB-DRUG INTERACTIONS AND PATIENT COUNSELING MOHAMMAD YAHEYA MOHAMMAD ISMAIL* Dept. of Pharmacy, Higher College of Technology, P.O.Box 74 PC 133, Sultanate of Oman E mail: [email protected] (*Corresponding author) ABSTRACT Millions of people today use herbal therapies along with prescription and non prescription medications. Although considered natural, many of these herbal therapies can interact with other medications, causing either potentially dangerous side effects and / or reduced benefits from the medication. Currently, there is very little information published on herb-drug interactions whilst the use of herbs is progressively growing across the world. As there is large belief that herbal medicines are safe to use, it needs to be understood that depending on the amount and potency of the pharmacologic principles contained in the herbal preparation, potential exists for herb-drug interaction to occur when the herbal product is consumed with the modern day medicine. It should be understood that herbal preparations contain active phytochemicals in varying proportions which have a tendency like any other active pharmacological substance to alter the enzymatic systems, transporters and / or the physiologic process. The intent of this review is to update on some imminent issues that may arise if the modern medicine is mixed with a suspecting herbal preparation. These situations may arise in our daily lives due to the lack of strict adherence to regular drug prescription practices, unabated use of over the counter drug products and / or self prescription practices. Health-care practitioners should caution patients against mixing herbs and pharmaceutical drugs.
