Respiratory comfort (3)
- Forskolin versus sodium cromoglycate for prevention of asthma attacks: a single-blinded clinical trial
PubMed ID: 16749416
Oral forskolin capsules resulted in substantially fewer asthma attacks compared with sodium cromoglycate—clinically meaningful reduction in attacks.
- Intravenous colforsin daropate, a water-soluble forskolin derivative, prevents thiamylal-fentanyl-induced bronchoconstriction in humans
PubMed ID: 11940752
IV colforsin prevented fentanyl‑induced increases in airway resistance and preserved lung compliance—strong peri‑procedural bronchoprotection.
- Effect of prophylactic bronchodilator treatment with intravenous colforsin daropate, a water-soluble forskolin derivative, on airway resistance after tracheal intubation
PubMed ID: 12826837
Prophylactic IV colforsin before intubation reduced airway resistance and improved lung compliance—clear airway benefit.
Skin appearance (1)
- Evaluation of the efficacy of a topical cosmetic slimming product combining tetrahydroxypropyl ethylenediamine, caffeine, carnitine, forskolin and retinol, In vitro, ex vivo and in vivo studies
PubMed ID: 21564138
Topical slimming product containing forskolin reduced body circumferences and improved cellulite/skin appearance in a clinical cosmetic trial (direct topical evidence).
Body composition (1)
- Body composition and hormonal adaptations associated with forskolin consumption in overweight and obese men
PubMed ID: 16129715
Oral forskolin reduced body fat percentage and fat mass in overweight/obese men—direct body‑composition benefit.
Fat burn (1)
- Body composition and hormonal adaptations associated with forskolin consumption in overweight and obese men
PubMed ID: 16129715
Oral forskolin reduced fat mass and body fat percentage in a randomized trial—direct evidence for fat loss.
Hormone balance (1)
- Body composition and hormonal adaptations associated with forskolin consumption in overweight and obese men
PubMed ID: 16129715
Oral forskolin increased free testosterone in overweight/obese men—direct human endocrine effect.
Metabolism (1)
- Body composition and hormonal adaptations associated with forskolin consumption in overweight and obese men
PubMed ID: 16129715
Oral forskolin reduced fat mass/increased free testosterone in men—consistent with metabolic upregulation (moderate direct evidence).
Weight management (1)
- Body composition and hormonal adaptations associated with forskolin consumption in overweight and obese men
PubMed ID: 16129715
12‑week RCT in overweight/obese men: oral forskolin lowered fat mass and body fat percentage (direct human evidence).
