Science

Mechanism of Action

This botanical extract operates through key sesquiterpenes, primarily polygodial and isotadeonal, alongside other secondary metabolites such as tannins, flavonoids, and polyphenols. Polygodial is recognized for its antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-hyperalgesic effects. Pre-clinical studies suggest antihistaminic and antipyretic activities, with notable disinfectant action against skin infections and in vitro antiviral efficacy against HSV-1 and RSV.
