Elderberry for prevention and treatment of viral respiratory illnesses: a systematic review.
BACKGROUND: Elderberry has traditionally been used to prevent and treat respiratory problems. During the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been interest in elderberry supplements to treat or prevent illness, but also concern that elderberry might overstimulate the immune system and increase the risk of 'cytokine storm'. We aimed to determine benefits and harms of elderberry for the prevention and treatment of viral respiratory infections, and to assess the relationship between elderberry supplements and negative health impacts associated with overproduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines. METHODS: W

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: The genus Sambucus L. (Viburnaceae) consists of about 29 recognized species distributed in all regions of the world except the extremely cold and desert areas. Some species have been used as traditional medicines to treat various disorders such as bone fractures, rheumatism, diabetes, respiratory and pulmonary disorders, skin diseases, inflammatory ailments, diarrhea, and others. However, the currently available data on traditional and pharmacological uses have not been comprehensively reviewed. STUDY AIM: The present review is designed to provide information on

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: We here tease apart the ethnopharmacological knowledge of plants in two Thai villages to determine to which degree the uses are particular to individual ethnic groups and to which degree they are part of a generalized and uniform set of widespread medicinal plants used over a large geographic range. We compared Karen and Lawa knowledge of medicinal plants in the Mae Cheam watershed of northern Thailand, where both ethnic groups have settled and share ecological conditions for resource extraction. We were interested in documenting the degree to which these two et

Viral infections are being managed therapeutically through available antiviral regimens with unsatisfactory clinical outcomes. The refractory viral infections resistant to available antiviral drugs are alarming threats and a serious health concern. For viral hepatitis, the interferon and vaccine therapies solely are not ultimate solutions due to recurrence of hepatitis C virus. Owing to the growing incidences of viral infections and especially of resistant viral strains, the available therapeutic modalities need to be improved, complemented with the discovery of novel antiviral agents to comba

SEGURIDAD Y PRECAUCIONES El uso de *Sambucus peruviana*, conocido comúnmente como saúco andino, debe abordarse con extrema cautela, ya que la seguridad de sus aplicaciones depende estrictamente de la parte de la planta empleada y de su correcta preparación. Como ocurre con diversas especies del género *Sambucus*, la toxicidad puede estar presente si no se siguen los protocolos tradicionales de procesamiento. En cuanto al embarazo y la lactancia, no existen estudios clínicos suficientes que garanticen la inocuidad del saúco andino en mujeres gestantes o en periodo de lactancia. Debido a la falta de evidencia científica sobre su paso a la leche materna y su potencial efecto sobre el desarrollo fetal, su uso está contraindicado durante estas etapas. De igual manera, su administración en niños pequeños debe evitarse debido a la ausencia de datos sobre seguridad pediátrica y el riesgo de reacciones adversas en sistemas fisiológicos en desarrollo. Respecto a los efectos secundarios, el uso inadecuado de las partes de la planta podría provocar malestar gastrointestinal.
