Summary

This completed study tested a tablet containing horse chestnut, smartweed, sarsaparilla, and rutin in 120 adults with mild to moderate hemorrhoids. Over 60 days, researchers measured changes in symptoms like pain, bleeding, and itching using a symptom score. The goal was to see if this herbal combination could improve comfort and quality of life.
