Cochrane Reviews, 07/09/09
Li W et al. - Data from some experimental and human studies have suggested acanthopanax, a traditional Chinese medicine, may be beneficial for people with acute ischaemic stroke. It has been used in China for many years to treat stroke. To obtain a reliable assessment of the effects of acanthopanax in acute ischaemic stroke, the authors reviewed data from 13 studies involving 962 participants. The quality of the trials was poor, and there was not enough evidence to support the routine use of acanthopanax in the treatment of acute ischaemic stroke. More high-quality trials are needed.
