Researchers from Capital University in China have found that a decoction of Herba Epimedii (HE) and Fructus Ligustri Lucidi (FLL) can improve the effects of the glucocorticoids budesonide. The study, published in BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine, looked at how co-administering a combination HE and FLL with inhaled budesonide can improve asthma using an ovalbumin-induced rat model.
Researchers concluded that using budesonide with HE-FLL greatly improved symptoms of ovalbumin-induced asthma using a rat model.
