Effect of an anxiolytic botanical containing Souroubea sympetala and Platanus occidentalis on in-vitro diazepam human cytochrome P450-mediated metabolism.

Summary

Scientists have developed a new natural health product for anxious pets, containing extracts from Souroubea sympetala and Platanus occidentalis plants. A study was conducted to investigate whether the plant extracts and their bioactive compounds could interact with conventional anti-anxiety medication diazepam in pets. The research found that the plant extracts did not significantly affect the activity of cytochrome P450 isozymes, which indicates a lower risk of negative drug interactions. The findings highlight the potential benefits of using natural health products to complement traditional medication for pet anxiety. However, further clinical evaluations are needed to determine the full efficacy of the product.
