Tribusponin and Atherosponin - Remedies of Vegetable Origin
2013
Tribusponin, which is used for treatment and prevention of atherosclerosis, is a nonhormonal anabolic agent developed on the basis of steroid glycosides of the Tribulus terrestris L. - a plain annual plant. Tribusponin is suitable for treatment of cerebral atherosclerosis, atherosclerosis in combination with hypertension, angina pectoris against the background of coronary atherosclerosis, and mesenterial atherosclerosis complicated with atonia of intestine and/or biliary tracts, male infertility, for using in a rehabilitation period after serious illness and surgical interventions, and for increasing the athletes' exercise tolerance. Dosage form Atherosponin (0.25 g capsules), containing a mixture of the dried aqueous-alcoholic extract and the fine-dispersed powder of the plant in the ratio of 1:1.5, was developed from the aerial parts of Tribulus terrestris L. The preparation retains the whole complex of substances of the plant in the natural form. The therapeutic effects and indications of the food additive Atherosponin are similar to those of Tribusponin. © 2013 Bull. Georg. Natl. Acad. Sci.
