The Scilla maritima (also known as "skillet" or "sea onion") is a plant native to the Mediterranean region, particularly known for its powerful cardiotonic properties. It has been used for centuries in traditional remedies, mainly to support cardiac and respiratory function.
Chemical Composition:
- Glycosides (scylarin, scilaroside): Which directly affect the heart.
- Alkaloids: With actions on the nervous system and blood pressure regulation.
- Essential oils and saponins: Which have expectorant and diuretic properties.
Pharmacological Actions and Properties:
- Cardiotonic: Sclerosis strengthens the systolic force of the heart muscle, helping with blood circulation.
- Expectorant: Traditionally used to relieve cough and remove mucus.
- Diuretic: Contributes to the elimination of fluids and the reduction of edema.
- Antihypertensive: It can help regulate blood pressure due to its diuretic action.
Indications for Use:
- Heart failure, especially mild cases requiring cardiac support.
- Cough and respiratory problems with a strong presence of mucus.
- Fluid retention and edema related to heart or kidney problems.
How to Use:
5-10 drops in water or decoction, 1-2 times a day. It is important to follow the therapist's instructions, as the plant has a strong effect.
Precautions:
- It is not recommended for use by pregnant women, nursing mothers, or people sensitive to glycosides.
- Use under medical supervision is necessary, especially for people with heart problems or people taking other cardiotonic medications.
- Overdose can cause serious side effects, such as cardiac arrhythmia.
Side effects:
- Overdose can lead to nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and, in severe cases, cardiac arrhythmias.
- May cause allergic reactions or stomach irritation in some users.
The tincture Scilla maritima is a powerful natural cardiotonic and expectorant, suitable for special cases that require support of cardiac and respiratory health. Despite its beneficial properties, caution is required in use and specialist advice is necessary, due to its strong effects and possible side effects.
