Silexan® tested in study on Pharmaceutical Quality of Herbal Medicinal Products
2025-04-07
In a recent study the pharmaceutical quality of herbal medicinal products and dietary supplements containing Lavandula species was examined. The research evaluated the disintegration performance and phytochemical composition of 73 Lavandula products.
The study discovered that 63% of the products had little to no key marker compounds of lavender (linalool, linalyl acetate, cineole), and 30% failed the disintegration tests.
However, all Schwabe products featuring our special medicinal lavender oil Silexan® passed the tests without any issues.
