Top Marks for Remifemin®
Highest Level of Evidence (1) and Highest Grade of Recommendation (A)
The world’s first differentiated review of clinical studies examining the efficacy and safety of Cimicifuga racemosa (black cohosh) for menopausal complaints has been accepted for publication in the international peer-reviewed journal, Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine (eCAM):
Why Not All Black Cohosh Products are the Same
Herbal extracts contain a multitude of ingredients and their composition varies depending on many factors, such as the extraction method. This may lead to different efficacies. Furthermore, a product’s quality (reflected in a regulatory status as a medicinal product) is a prerequisite for a reproducible efficacy and safety.
What sets this review apart from all other Cimicifuga reviews is that it corresponds with the characteristics of evidence-based phytotherapy by differentiating according to extract, quality and indication.
Accordingly, Oxford Levels of Evidence (LOE) and Grades of Recommendation (GR) have now been determined.
- The LOE and GR system assists the busy clinician in making confident product recommendations: http://www.cebm.net/index.aspx?o=8111
From the Abstract[1]:
“Only registered CR** medicinal products were able to prove their efficacy. Best evidence was provided by the isopropanolic CR extract (iCR): the multitude of studies including more than 11,000 patients demonstrated consistent confirmatory evidence of LOE 1b (LOE 1a for safety) leading to a GR A.”
The Grade of Recommendation A represents a seal of approval which is rarely achieved by herbal medicinal products and offers a profound basis for qualified counselling of climacteric patients.
