Research sources
Inflammation (4)
- An open-label, randomized multicenter study comparing the efficacy and safety of Cyclo 3 Fort versus hydroxyethyl rutoside in chronic venous lymphatic insufficiency
PubMed ID: 10917578
Cyclo 3 Fort produced faster symptom regression and limb size reduction versus rutoside, implying reduced inflammatory/edematous signs.
- Efficacy and safety of a Butcher's broom preparation (Ruscus aculeatus L. extract) compared to placebo in patients suffering from chronic venous insufficiency
PubMed ID: 12040966
Oral ruscus produced modest but significant reductions in leg volume and symptoms consistent with reduced inflammatoryāedema.
- Treatment of secondary lymphedema of the upper limb with CYCLO 3 FORT
PubMed ID: 8721977
12.9% reduction in arm edema volume in RCT suggests antiāedema/antiāinflammatory effect in lymphatic/venous tissue.
- An open-label, randomised multicentre study comparing the efficacy and safety of CYCLO 3 FORT versus hydroxyethyl rutoside in chronic venous lymphatic insufficiency
PubMed ID: 10811525
Same open randomized study as 10917578 showing symptom and limbāsize benefits consistent with decreased inflammation/edema.
Swelling relief (4)
- Efficacy and safety of a Butcher's broom preparation (Ruscus aculeatus L. extract) compared to placebo in patients suffering from chronic venous insufficiency
PubMed ID: 12040966
Placeboācontrolled RCT showed statistically significant reductions in leg volume and circumference over 12 weeks.
- Treatment of secondary lymphedema of the upper limb with CYCLO 3 FORT
PubMed ID: 8721977
Significant reduction in arm edema volume in RCT indicates capacity to reduce extracellular fluid accumulation.
- An open-label, randomised multicentre study comparing the efficacy and safety of CYCLO 3 FORT versus hydroxyethyl rutoside in chronic venous lymphatic insufficiency
PubMed ID: 10811525
Same open randomized study reporting limbāsize reduction with Cyclo 3 Fort versus rutoside.
- An open-label, randomized multicenter study comparing the efficacy and safety of Cyclo 3 Fort versus hydroxyethyl rutoside in chronic venous lymphatic insufficiency
PubMed ID: 10917578
Cyclo 3 Fort produced significant and persistent reduction in affected limb size versus rutoside over 90 days.
Blood circulation (3)
- An open-label, randomized multicenter study comparing the efficacy and safety of Cyclo 3 Fort versus hydroxyethyl rutoside in chronic venous lymphatic insufficiency
PubMed ID: 10917578
Cyclo 3 Fort improved venous/lymphatic symptoms and limb size versus rutoside, applicable to varicose symptom relief.
- Efficacy and safety of a Butcher's broom preparation (Ruscus aculeatus L. extract) compared to placebo in patients suffering from chronic venous insufficiency
PubMed ID: 12040966
Doubleāblind RCT showed reduced leg volume and improved symptoms in chronic venous insufficiency, indicating improved venous/leg circulation.
- An open-label, randomised multicentre study comparing the efficacy and safety of CYCLO 3 FORT versus hydroxyethyl rutoside in chronic venous lymphatic insufficiency
PubMed ID: 10811525
Same trial as 10917578 with symptomatic/limbāsize benefits relevant to varicose discomfort.
Joint mobility (3)
- An open-label, randomised multicentre study comparing the efficacy and safety of CYCLO 3 FORT versus hydroxyethyl rutoside in chronic venous lymphatic insufficiency
PubMed ID: 10811525
Same open randomized data supporting symptomatic relief relevant to standing comfort.
- An open-label, randomized multicenter study comparing the efficacy and safety of Cyclo 3 Fort versus hydroxyethyl rutoside in chronic venous lymphatic insufficiency
PubMed ID: 10917578
Cyclo 3 Fort accelerated symptom regression vs rutoside, which would include standingārelated discomfort.
- Efficacy and safety of a Butcher's broom preparation (Ruscus aculeatus L. extract) compared to placebo in patients suffering from chronic venous insufficiency
PubMed ID: 12040966
RCT improvements in 'heavy/tired legs' and tension/tingling likely translate into better comfort when standing.
Vascular health (3)
- An open-label, randomised multicentre study comparing the efficacy and safety of CYCLO 3 FORT versus hydroxyethyl rutoside in chronic venous lymphatic insufficiency
PubMed ID: 10811525
Same trial as 10917578 showing superiority over rutoside, consistent with improved vein tone.
- An open-label, randomized multicenter study comparing the efficacy and safety of Cyclo 3 Fort versus hydroxyethyl rutoside in chronic venous lymphatic insufficiency
PubMed ID: 10917578
Cyclo 3 Fort delivered faster, more complete symptom regression and sustained limbāsize reduction versus rutoside, implying venotonic action.
- Efficacy and safety of a Butcher's broom preparation (Ruscus aculeatus L. extract) compared to placebo in patients suffering from chronic venous insufficiency
PubMed ID: 12040966
Oral ruscus reduced leg volume and venous symptoms in CVI, consistent with increased venous tone/function over 12 weeks.
