Supplements that help with Ulcerative Colitis

Chiretta for Ulcerative Colitis

2 studies Moderately Positive Patients with mildly to moderately active ulcerative colitis treated with A. paniculata extract (HMPL-004) at a dose of 1,800 mg daily were more likely to achieve clinical response than those receiving placebo. Moderately Positive HMPL-004 may be an efficacious alternative to mesalazine in ulcerative colitis.

CBD for Ulcerative Colitis

1 study Slightly Positive Although the primary endpoint was not reached, several signals suggest CBD-rich botanical extract may be beneficial for symptomatic treatment of UC.

Colostrum for Ulcerative Colitis

1 study Moderately Positive Bovine colostrum enema shows potential as a novel therapy for left-sided colitis with additional benefits over using mesalazine alone. Further studies appear to be warranted.

Curcumin for Ulcerative Colitis

2 studies Slightly Positive Curcumin seems to be a promising and safe medication for maintaining remission in patients with quiescent UC. Further studies on curcumin should strengthen our findings. Slightly Positive A pure curcumin preparation was administered in an open label study to five patients with ulcerative proctitis and five with Crohn's disease. All proctitis patients improved, with reductions in concomitant medications in four, and four of five Crohn's disease patients had lowered CDAI scores and sedimentation rates. This encouraging pilot study suggests the need for double-blind placebo-controlled follow-up studies.

Psyllium for Ulcerative Colitis

1 study Moderately Positive Plantago ovata seeds (dietary fiber) might be as effective as mesalamine to maintain remission in ulcerative colitis.

Vitamin E for Ulcerative Colitis

1 study Moderately Positive This preliminary report suggests that rectal d-alpha tocopherol may represent a novel therapy for mild and moderately active UC. The observed results might be due to the anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties of vitamin E.
