Ivy leaf extract alleviates bronchitis and helps patients with asthma.
Bronchitis and asthma are different diseases, but they have one feature in
common-in both conditions the mucous membranes of the airways produce large
amounts of phlegm or mucus and this hinders breathing. If the bronchi are
narrowed further still by inflammation the patient may even become short of
breath. Scientific investigations have shown that a special extract from IVY
leaves can give definite relief from such symptoms, without any risk of the
adverse side effects which may be associated with certain therapeutic agents of
chemical origin. In a large scale clinical trial comprising 99 adults between
25 and 70 years of age with acute or chronic bronchitis the efficacy of IVY extract was compared under
double-blind conditions with that of Ambroxol. The phytopharmaceutical was just
as effective as the chemical drug.
