Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Fritillary, referring broadly to species within the genus Fritillaria (such as Fritillaria thunbergii or Fritillaria cirrhosa), is a traditional medicinal herb used in Chinese medicine (known as "Chuan Bei Mu" or "Zhe Bei Mu"). In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), fritillary bulbs have been used primarily for their expectorant and antitussive properties, particularly for coughs and respiratory conditions. There are some TCM formulas and anecdotal reports suggesting that fritillary may be included in herbal combinations aimed at "clearing heat" and "resolving toxicity," concepts that, in TCM theory, can overlap with symptoms or complications of hepatitis (such as jaundice or liver inflammation). However, the direct use of fritillary for the treatment of hepatitis is not a major or well-documented application within classical TCM texts.

Scientific evidence supporting the use of fritillary for hepatitis is minimal. While some modern pharmacological studies have investigated the bioactive compounds of fritillary (such as peimine and peiminine) and their effects on inflammation or immune modulation, direct clinical or preclinical evidence for efficacy in hepatitis (either viral or non-viral) is lacking. Thus, while fritillary may appear in certain traditional formulations used for liver-related complaints, its use for hepatitis specifically is based more on tradition than on scientific validation, and the overall quality of evidence is low.
