Pain relief (2)

Randomized Clinical Trial: Crofelemer Treatment in Women With Diarrhea-Predominant Irritable Bowel Syndrome
PubMed ID: 31800542
IBS‑D RCT: crofelemer produced a modest, statistically significant improvement in abdominal pain responders in post‑hoc analyses.
Wound healing activity of a traditional Chinese medicine (Longxuejie) in capsule dosage form
PubMed ID: 32173642
Elderly bedsore patients given dragon's blood capsules reported less pain vs control, but treatment was combined with a new dressing (confounded).

Digestive support (2)

Effect of crofelemer extract on severity and consistency of experimentally induced enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli diarrhea in newborn Holstein calves
PubMed ID: 26298758
Controlled, blinded calf challenge: enteric‑coated crofelemer increased fecal dry matter (less watery stools)—direct antisecretory effect (animal).
Prophylactic use of a standardized botanical extract for the prevention of naturally occurring diarrhea in newborn Holstein calves
PubMed ID: 28189317
Randomized calf trial of Croton lechleri extract showed large reductions in diarrhea incidence and less need for fluid therapy—strong, direct antisecretory/antidiarrheal evidence (animal).

Gut health (2)

Effect of crofelemer extract on severity and consistency of experimentally induced enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli diarrhea in newborn Holstein calves
PubMed ID: 26298758
Enteric‑coated crofelemer decreased stool water content in E. coli‑challenged calves, suggesting mucosal antisecretory action.
Prophylactic use of a standardized botanical extract for the prevention of naturally occurring diarrhea in newborn Holstein calves
PubMed ID: 28189317
Reduced diarrhea and dehydration in calves implies protective/antisecretory effects on intestinal function/mucosa (animal evidence).

Skin repair (1)

Wound healing activity of a traditional Chinese medicine (Longxuejie) in capsule dosage form
PubMed ID: 32173642
Bedsore study reported higher clinical healing 'effective rate' with dragon's blood capsules plus new dressing—positive signal for skin/wound healing despite confounding.
