Civan Perçemine (Achillea Millefolium) Bağlı Beklenmeyen Antikolinerjik Etki

Year 2013, Volume: 4 Issue: 3, 89 - 91, 01.07.2013

Abstract

Civan perçemi (Achillea millefolium), halk arasında anti-inflamatuar, anti-ülser ve östrojen benzeri etkisi nedeniyle yaygın kullanılan
bir bitkidir. Bu bitkisel tedaviyle ilgili olarak, içinde dermal alerjik
reaksiyonların da bulunduğu bazı yan etkiler bildirilmiştir. Fakat
achillea türleriyle ilgili literatürde antikolinerjik toksisiteye rastlanmamaktadır. Kırk üç yaşındaki kadın hasta acil servise görme
bozukluğu, ağızda kuruluk, yüzde kızarma ve çarpıntı şikayetleriyle başvurdu. Bilinen sistemik bir hastalığı yoktu ve civan perçemi
çayı (bir haftadan beri günde beş bardak) dışında kullandığı bitkisel bir ilaç veya tedavi bulunmamaktaydı. Bitkisel çayı, menometroraji şikayeti için kullandığını belirtmekteydi. Yapılmış çalışmalara
göre achillea türlerindeki içerik oldukça biyoaktif olmakla birlikte,
bitkinin tüm etkileri iyi bilinmemektedir. Achillea türlerinin tedavi
amaçlı kullanımı güvenli kabul edilmiş olsa da, farklı farmakolojik
etkileri dikkatle ele alınmalıdır.

“An Unexpected Anticholinergic Effect due to Yarrow (Achillea millefolium)”

Year 2013, Volume: 4 Issue: 3, 89 - 91, 01.07.2013

Abstract

Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) is a widely used plant in folk medicine due to its anti-inflammatory, anti-ulcer and estrogen-related effects. Some side effects including dermal allergic reactions have been reported owing to this herbal remedy. However, the literature about Achillea species do not include any side effects indicating anticholinergic toxicity. A 43-year-old female patient presented to the emergency department with blurred vision, dryness in the mouth, facial flushing and palpitation. She did not have any systemic illnesses and she denied taking any other herbal drugs or medications except yarrow tea (five cups a day, for one week), which she used for the treatment of menometrorrhagia. The constituents of the Achillea species identified in the former studies are highly bioactive, but their effects are not entirely known. Although the Achillea species have been considered as safe medicinal plants, the various pharmacological effects of Achillea species should be cautiously handled
