How do the ingredients of the medicine work?
The ingredients come from the black cohosh plant and act as a natural mixture. About the plant itself:
- Appearance: erect, perennial shrub with a thick, densely rooted rhizome and large, two to three-pinnate leaves; the whitish flowers are arranged in clusters
- Occurrence: Europe, North America, Asia
- Main constituents: Triterpene glycosides (cimicifugoside, actein, cimiracemosides A, C and F)
- Plant parts and preparations used: Extract from the underground parts (rhizome)
Black cohosh rhizome extracts influence the effect of female hormones, especially estrogen, and are therefore used to treat menopausal symptoms.
