As a mixture of several steroid lipids isolated from the plant Commiphora Mukul (gum guggul), Gugulipid has been marketed by an Indian pharmaceutical firm as a potent hypolipidemic agent. Its evolution spans over two decades. The college of medical sciences, Banares Hindu University, Varanasi in 1964 discovered the lipid lowering effects of gum guggul, tested and proved its efficacy in 1966. Satyavati, however, first reported the hypolipidemic action of the drug, in her thesis entitled "Effects of an indigenous drug on disorders of lipid metabolism with special efforts to atherosclerosis and obesity." Submitted in the BHU in January 1966.*
Other clinical studies have followed in quick succession, all of which confirmed the efficacy of gum guggul in lowering serum cholesterol and other lipids in patients of obesity/hypolipidemic.*
A few studies have shown a significant increase in serum fibrinolytic activity and Bordia and Chuttani reported a decrease in the platelet adhesive index from Udaipr, in patients of coronary artery disease and healthy controls. Increased fibrinolytic activity was reported with no effect on platelet aggregation was reported. Gugulon in a dose of 400 mg t.i.d. for four weeks has been reported to be devoid of any adverse effect on liver function, blood sugar, blood urea, and hematological perimeters, etc.*
Some studies have attributed the hypolipidemic drug effect to its action on the thyroid gland. The drug is claimed to lower serum cholesterol up to 27 percent and the triglycerides up to 31 percent. Gugulon is the first hypolipidemic agent arrived from the plant source.* |
