Sambong is the only scientifically studied anti-urolithiasis and diuretic herbal preparation in the Philippines today. Anti-urolithiasis means dissolving or preventing the formation of urinary tract stones while diuretic means increasing the passage of urine. The National Integrated Research Program on Medicinal Plants (NIRPROMP) has validated the ancient yet popular knowledge and practices of the traditional healers. They have established in both animal and human studies, the wide margin of safety and efficacy of Sambong as an anti-urolithiasis and diuretic medicine.
Phase II and III Clinical Studies showed positive response with any of the following: passage of stones, absence or decrease in number and size of stones on Intravenous Pyelogram (IVP, a kind of X-ray that looks at the urinary tract) and/or ultrasound, and passage of sandy urine. Studies also revealed that Sambong as diuretic reduces sodium by 2.3%, potassium by 6.5% and chloride by 0.3%.
