PRESCRIÇÃO DE FITOTERÁPICOS COMO FAZER? Prof. Leandro Medeiros (@prof_leandromedeiros) Fortaleza, 2016 MAS AFINAL, QUE PRODUTOS SÃO CONTEMPLADOS PELA FITOTERAPIA? CARACTERIZANDO A FITOTERAPIA Vegetais Metabólitos primários Metabólitos secundários (Nutrientes) (Fitonutrientes ou fitoquímicos) Alonso, 2004 low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in vitro in a concentration- dependent manner.(10) Silybin appears to be the constituent of silymarin responsible for the LDL antioxidant effect. In contrast, silichristin and silydianin appeared to act as pro-oxidants, but without significantly reducing the total LDL antioxidant capacity of silymarin. Free radicals are recognised as having an important role in several pathological processes, including inflammation, necrosis, fibrosis, atherosclerosis, carcinogenesis and ageing and in the hepatotoxic mechanisms of various substances. The antioxidant activity of silymarin is thought to contibute to its hepatoprotective properties.(11, G55) Hepatoprotective properties In vitro studies using isolated hepatocytes have documented the protective activity of silymarin and several of its components against cell damage induced by various cytotoxic substances.(1) In vivo studies in rats and mice have demonstrated the hepatoprotective activity of silymarin and silybin in acute liver toxicity induced by various toxic agents with different mechan- isms of action, including carbon tetrachloride, galactosamine, thioacetamide, ethanol, paracetamol (acetaminophen), thallium, phalloidin and a-amanitin (the main toxic constituents of the mushroom A. phalloides).(1) Experimental studies in chronic liver toxicity induced by repeated administration of carbon tetrachlor- ide, heavy metals, thioacetamide and several drugs, including azathioprine and indometacin, have also demonstrated that administration of silymarin and silybin protects against damage.(1) Other studies have reported protective effects of silymarin against liver injury induced by ischaemia(12) and gamma irradiation.(13) Studies in rabbits fed a high-fat diet for 12 weeks have shown that histopathological alterations were least advanced in animals which also received a silymarin–phospholipid complex.(14) In rats, silymarin inhibited the development of diet-induced hypercholes- terolaemia.(15) The hypocholesterolaemic effects of silymarin may be due to the effects of silymarin on lipoprotein metabolism.(16) The effects of silymarin on biliary bile salt secretion have been seen in studies in rats.(17) Intraperitoneal silymarin (25, 50, 100 and 150mg/kg/day) for five days induced a dose-dependent increase in bile flow and bile salt secretion. Stimulation of bile salt secretion was mainly accounted for by an increase in the biliary secretion of the hepatoprotective bile salts b-muricholate and ursodeoxycholate. Nephroprotective properties Silibinin injected into rats prior to administration of cisplatin afforded protection of glomerular and proximal tubular function.(18, 19) Silibinin does not affect the cytotoxic activity of cisplatin.(19) Intraperitoneal silibinin (5mg/ kg) administered to rats 30 minutes before ciclosporin decreased ciclosporin-induced lipid peroxidation but produced no protective effect on the glomerular filtration rate.(20) Anticancer activity Silybin at concentrations of 0.1–20 mmol/L inhibited the growth of drug-resistant ovarian cancer cells and doxorubicin-resistant breast cancer cells in vitro.(21) Furthermore, silybin in the range of 0.1–1.0 mmol/L potentiated the effect of cisplatin and doxorubicin in experimental tumour cell lines. When applied to the skin of SENCAR mice, silymarin gave protection against the effects of the tumour promoters 12-O-tetradecanoyl- phorbol (TPA) and okaidic acid (OA).(22) Topical application of silymarin prior to that of TPA and OA completely inhibited induction of tumour necrosis factor a (TNFa) mRNA expression in the epidermis. Substantial protection from photocarcinogenesis in mice treated with phorbol ester or 7,12-dimethylbenz(a) anthracene has been demonstrated.(23) The antitumour effect is primarily at stage 1 tumour promotion and silymarin acts by inhibiting cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) and interleukin 1a (IL- 1a).(24) Such effects may involve inhibition of promoter-induced oedema, hyperplasia, the proliferation index and oxidant state.(25) Treatment of serum-starved human prostate carcinoma DU145 cells with silymarin resulted in significant inhibition of transform- ing growth factor a (TGFa)-mediated activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor erbB1.(26) There was also a decrease in tyrosine phosphorylation of an immediate downstream target, the adapter protein SHC, together with a decrease in binding to erbB1. In the silymarin-treated cell lines there was a significant induction of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CDKIs) Cip1/ p21 and Kip/p27 concomitant with a significant decrease in CDK4 expression, but no changes in the levels of CDK2 and CDK6 and their associated cyclins E and D1, respectively. Additional experiments showed that there was a significant inhibition of constitutive tyrosine phosphorylation of both erbB1 and SHC, but Figure 2 Milk thistle (Silybum marianum).

Milk Thistle 431 MDosageDosages for oral administration (adults) for traditional uses recommended in standard herbal reference texts are given below. Fruit Crude drug 12–15 g daily in divided doses (equivalent to silymarin 200–400mg daily).(G3) Herb Approximately 1.5 g of finely chopped material as a tea, two or three cups daily. The doses of silymarin used in clinical trials have ranged from 280–800mg/day (equivalent to milk thistle extract 400–1140mg/ day standardised to contain 70% silibinin).(3) For hepatic disorders, doses of up to 140mg (equivalent to 60mg silibinin) two or three times daily have been suggested.(G43) In Germany, the recommended regimen for treatment of Amanita phalloides poisoning with a standardised silymarin preparation (Legalon) is a total dose of silibinin (as the disodium dihemisuccinate) (20mg/kg body weight) over 24 hours, divided into four intravenous infusions each given over a 2-hour period.(G43, G55) Pharmacological Actions Several pharmacological activities have been documented for milk thistle fruit, including hepatoprotective, antioxidant, anti-inflam- matory, antifibrotic and antitumour properties, as well as inhibition of lipid peroxidation, stimulation of protein biosynth- esis and acceleration of liver regeneration. Silymarin (an isomer mixture comprising mainly silibinin, silichristin and silidianin) is the pharmacologically active component of milk thistle fruit; silibinin is the main component of silymarin. There is an extensive literature on the pharmacological effects of silymarin and silibinin, particularly with regard to their hepatoprotective activity which provides supporting evidence for the clinical uses. The pharmacology and clinical efficacy of milk thistle have been reviewed.(1–3,G50, G55) The following represents a summary of selected publications on this subject. There is a lack of research investigating the pharmacological effects of preparations of milk thistle leaf.(G2,G32,G35) In vitro and animal studies Antioxidant activity Silymarin and silibinin (silybin) are antioxidants that react with free radicals (e.g. reactive oxygen species) transforming them into more stable and less reactive compounds.(1, 4–6) Silymarin and silybin have been reported to inihibit lipid peroxidation induced by iron-linked systems in rat liver microsomes(7, 8) and protect against phenylhydrazine-induced lipid peroxidation in rat erythrocytes.(1) Furthermore, in rats, intraperitoneal silymarin has been shown to increase total glutathione in the liver, intestine and stomachand to improve the reduced glutathione to oxidised glutathione ratio.(9) Silymarin has been shown to inhibit copper-induced oxidation of human Figure 1 Selected constituents of milk thistle. 430 Milk Thistle M Dosage Dosages for oral administration (adults) for traditional uses recommended in standard herbal reference texts are given below.

Essa norma também se aplica a produtos que sejam constituídos de fungos multicelulares e algas como Insumos Farmacêuticos Ativos (IFA), até que seja publicada regulamentação específica para essas classes. Este Guia e a norma de registro supracitada, quando tratam de fitoterápicos, referem-se tanto ao Medicamento Fitoterápico (MF) quanto ao Produto Tradicional Fitoterápico (PTF). A principal diferença entre essas duas classes é que o MF comprova sua segurança e eficácia por meio de estudos clínicos, enquanto o PTF comprova a segurança e efetividade pela demonstração do tempo de uso na literatura técnico-científica.

Onakpoya I, Davies L, Posadzki P, Ernst E. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving the use of the African Bush Mango, Irvingia gabonensis for body weight reduction in obese and overweight individuals. Electronic and nonelectronic searches were conducted to identify relevant RCTs. The bibliographies of located articles were also searched. No age, gender, or language restrictions were imposed. The reporting quality of identified RCTs was assessed using a methodological checklist adapted from the Consolidated Standard of Reporting Trials Statement and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines. Two reviewers independently determined eligibility and assessed the reporting quality of included studies. Three RCTs were identified, and all were included. The RCTs all had flaws in the reporting of their methodology. All RCTs reported statistically significant reductions in body weight and waist circumference favoring I. gabonensis over placebo. The results from the RCTs also suggest positive effects of I. gabonensis supplementationon the blood lipid profile. Adverse events included headache and sleep difficulty. Due to the paucity and poor reporting quality of the RCTs, the effect of I. gabonensis on body weight and related parameters are unproven. Therefore, I. gabonensis cannot be recommended as a weight loss aid. Future research in this area should be more rigorous and better reported. J Diet Suppl. 2013 Mar;10(1):29-38.

It is listed by the Council of Europe as a natural source of food flavouring (category N1). This category indicates that there are no restrictions on the use of garlic in foods.(G16) Previously, garlic has been listed as GRAS (Generally Recognised As Safe).(G41) Herbal Use Garlic is stated to possess diaphoretic, expectorant, antispasmo- dic, antiseptic, bacteriostatic, antiviral, hypotensive and anthel- mintic properties, and to be a promoter of leukocytosis. Traditionally, it has been used to treat chronic bronchitis, respiratory catarrh, recurrent colds, whooping cough, bronchitic asthma, influenza and chronic bronchitis.(G2,G6,G32, G34,G49,G64) Modern use of garlic and garlic preparations is focused on their reputed antihypertensive, anti-atherogenic, antithrombotic, anti- microbial, fibrinolytic, cancer preventive and lipid-lowering effects.

There is also interest in the potential hepatoprotective properties of globe artichoke, although this has not yet been tested in controlled clinical trials.(10, 11) Dosage The German Commission E recommended an average daily dose of 6 g drug, or an equivalent dose of extract (based on the herb-to- extract ratio) or other preparations, for dyspeptic problems.(G3, G56) A recommended dosage regimen for liquid extract (1 : 2) is 3– 8mL daily.(G50) Dosages used in clinical trials of globe artichoke leaf extract have assessed the effects of dosages of up to 1.92 g daily in divided doses for up to six months.(12) Pharmacological Actions Several pharmacological properties have been documented for artichoke leaf, including inhibition of cholesterol biosynthesis, hypolipidaemic, antioxidant and hepatoprotective activity. It remains unclear which of the constituents of artichoke are responsible for its pharmacological activities. The dicaffeoylquinic acids, which include cynarin, are likely to be an important group of constituents in this respect.(11, G50) The sesquiterpene lactones, such as cynaropicrin, and flavonoids, such as luteolin glycoside, may also exert biological effects.(11) In vitro and animal studies Hypolipidaemic, hypocholesterolaemic and choleretic activity Hypolipidaemic, hypocholesterolaemic and choleretic activities are well documented for globe artichoke leaf extract and particularly for the constituent cynarin.(10, 11) Globe artichoke leaf extract not only increases choleresis and, therefore, choles- terol elimination, but also has been shown to inhibit cholesterol biosynthesis.(10) Preparations of globe artichoke leaf extract inhibit cholesterol biosynthesis in a concentration-dependent manner in studies in cultured rat hepatocytes.(13, 14) Low concentrations (<0.1mg/mL) of globe artichoke extract achieved around 20% inhibition, whereas 65% inhibition was noted with concentrations of 1mg/mL. Luteolin was considered to be one of the most important constituents for this effect, and it was suggested that a possible mechanism of action might be indirect inhibition of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMG- CoA).(14) Other in vitro studies have documented a concentra- tion-dependent inhibition of de novo cholesterol biosynthesis in cultured rat and human hepatocytes for globe artichoke leaf extract 0.03–0.1mg/mL.(15) Several other experimental studies have documented lipid- lowering effects for globe artichoke leaf extract and cynarin in vivo.(10, 11) A study in rats explored the hypocholesterolaemic, hypolipidaemic and choleretic effects of purified (containing 46% caffeoylquinic acids, calculated as chlorogenic acid) and total extracts of globe artichoke leaf (containing 19% caffeoylquinic Figure 2 Artichoke (Cynara scolymus).

Experimental studies (in vitro and in vivo) support some of the reputed uses of artichoke. Traditionally, the choleretic and cholesterol- lowering activities of globe artichoke have been attributed to cynarin. However, studies in animals and humans have suggested that these effects may in fact be due to the monocaffeoylquinic acids present in globe artichoke (e.g. chlorogenic and neochlorogenic acids). Clinical trials investigating the use of globe artichoke and cynarin in the treatment of hyperlipidaemia generally report positive results. However, further rigorous clinical trials are required to establish the benefit of globe artichoke leaf extract as a lipid- and cholesterol-lowering agent. Hepatoprotective and hepatoregenerating activities have been documented for cynarin in vitro and in animals (rats). However, these effects have not yet been documented in clinical studies.

A 67 Artichoke Summary and Pharmaceutical Comment Globe artichoke is characterised by the phenolic acid constituents, in particular cynarin. Experimental studies (in vitro and in vivo) support some of the reputed uses of artichoke.

However, studies in animals and humans have suggested that these effects may in fact be due to the monocaffeoylquinic acids present in globe artichoke (e.g. chlorogenic and neochlorogenic acids).
