Peppermint Oil helps to relieve both the painful abdominal spasm and uncomfortable bloating of IBS. It has a relaxant, antispasmodic effect especially on the muscles of the large bowel or colon and in bowel spasm, particularly large-bowel spasm. It is carminative, antibacterial, mucolytic. Peppermint Oil helps to treat unpleasant sensations of fullness and bloating and facilitates the passing of bowel gases, so relieving accompanying cramp like pain.

Peppermint oil induces a dose-related antispasmodic effects on the gastrointestinal smooth muscles . A meta-analysis study and additional clinical studies of patients with IBS demonstrated that the treatment with peppermint oil improves abdominal symptoms compared to the placebo group, resulting in reduced severity of abdominal pain, decreased abdominal distension, reduced stool frequency, and reduced flatulence . The use of enteric-coated peppermint oil was shown to be effective in reducing gastrointestinal symptoms of non-ulcer dyspepsia . In rats, peppermint oil promoted a time-dependent choleretic effect in increasing bile production and biliary output . In randomized controlled trials, topical application of peppermint oil was associated with a significant analgesic effect and a reduction in headache intensity compared to placebo . In a study of C57BL/6 mice, topical application of peppermint oil for 4 weeks was associated with a prominent hair growth effects; a significant increase in dermal thickness, follicle number, and follicle depth .

How Sensur Oil works

The chief constituent present in clove oil is the phenol "eugenol" which is present in amounts up to 85%. Clove oil acts as a germicide to Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa .

Clove oil is thought to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis, thereby reducing painful symptoms .

Eugenol, the main constituent of clove oil is purported to have anticancer action. In one study, eugenol-treated HL-60 cells showed features of apoptosis including DNA fragmentation and formation of DNA ladders in agarose gel electrophoresis. It was observed that eugenol transduced the apoptotic signal via reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, inducing mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT), decreasing anti-apoptotic protein bcl-2 level, inducing cytochrome c release to the cytosol, and subsequent apoptotic cell death. When taken together, the study showed that ROS plays a critical role in eugenol-induced apoptosis in HL-60, and this is the first report on the mechanism of the anticancer effect of eugenol .

Dose-dependent antispasmodic effect of peppermint oil is largely mediated by its menthol constituent . It is proposed that peppermint oil relaxes gastrointestinal smooth muscle and attenuates contractile responses by reducing the influx of extracellular calcium ions. In rabbit jejunum smooth muscle cells investigated via whole cell clamp configuration technique, peppermint oil was shown to inhibit the potential-dependent calcium currents in a concentration-dependent manner . Both a reduction in peak current amplitude and an increase in the rate of current decay were observed, indicating that the pharmacological activity peppermint oil resembles that of dihydropyridine calcium antagonists . In a rat small intestine study, peppermint oil in the intestinal lumen inhibited enterocyte glucose uptake via a direct action on the brush border membrane and inhibited intestinal secretion . There is also evidence that menthol is an antagonist of L-type Ca2+ channels via interacting with dihydropyridine binding sites and blocks the currents of low-voltage-activated calcium channels . Peppermint oil may facilitate hair growth by promoting the conservation of vascularization of hair dermal papilla, which may contribute to the induction of early anagen stage of active growth phase of hair follicles .

Dosage

Sensur Oil dosage

Adult: Should be taken 5 ml Clove oil with 10 ml-15 ml water and gurgle for 30 seconds of morning & bedtime daily.

Children: Should be taken 2.5 ml Clove oil with 10 ml water and gurgle for 30 seconds of morning & bedtime daily. Also undiluted clove oil is used in temporary relief of toothache due to dental cavity. Repeat administration after 20 minutes, then every 2 hours thereafter if necessary.

Adults: 1 capsule 3 times daily with a glass of water. The dose may be increased to a maximum of 2 capsules 3 times daily or as directed by a physician.

Children (8 years and above): 1 capsule 3 times daily with a glass of water or a directed by a physician.

Side Effects

In concentrated form oil of clove may be irritating to mucosal tissues.

Toxicity

Acute oral toxicity (LD50): 2650 mg/kg [Rat] .

Clove oil is considered safe in small quantities (< 1,500 ppm) as a food additive . the lethal oral dose is 3.75 g per kg body weight in humans .

Contact with skin or soft tissue may cause transient irritation, contact dermatitis, inflammation of the lips, and inflammation or ulceration of the mouth. The eugenol present in clove oil may act as an irritant to skin and mucous membranes; it may also cause hypersensitivity and is reported to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis. Patients may become sensitive to clove oil .

After oral administration of 5-10 ml of clove oil in children below 2 years of age, life-threatening conditions were observed. Adverse effects included coma, acidosis, a generalized seizure, disordered blood clotting, and acute liver damage .

Overdose may lead to CNS depression, urinary abnormalities, anion-gap acidosis, deterioration of liver function, coma, seizure and low blood glucose levels. Treatment should be supportive and symptomatic; there have been reports in the literature that N-acetylcysteine has been successfully used as an antidote .

There are no epidemiological studies of potential adverse human health effects related to exposure to clove leave oil or eugenol from any human exposure scenarios. Nor are there any studies of agricultural use, either in workers or those with bystander exposure or other applications. There are no occupational exposure standards for clove leaf oil or eugenol including OSHA PEL (Permissible Exposure Limit) or AGIHA TLVs (Threshold Limit Value) in air .

Oral LD50 value in rat is 2426 mg/kg . In fasted mice, the LD50 following oral administration was 2410 mg/kg . Higher doses of peppermint oil has the potential to induce menstruation, bronchospasm, tongue spasms, and, possibly, respiratory arrest in addition to potential hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity .

Overdose may cause severe gastrointestinal symptoms, diarrhoea, rectal ulceration, epileptic convulsions, loss of consciousness, apnoea, nausea, disturbances in cardiac rhythms, ataxia and other CNS problems, probably due to the presence of menthol . In the event of overdose, the stomach should be emptied by gastric lavage. Observation should be carried out with symptomatic treatment if necessary . A near fatal case of high dose peppermint oil ingestion was reported, the overdose was characterized by comatose and reduced heart rate .

Precaution

Should not be taken with food or immediately after meals. Should be taken 30 to 60 minutes before meals. Must be swallowed whole, with a little liquid. Capsules must not be chewed or crushed.

Interaction

Exacerbation of adverse effects if taken with alcohol; enteric-coated preparations containing peppermint oil should not be taken immediately with antacids.

Volume of Distribution

No pharmacokinetic data available.

Elimination Route

Clove oil is rapidly absorbed through the skin and is used in patented systems for dermal drug delivery to enhance drug uptake from skin patch delivery systems .

After oral administration, peppermint is rapidly absorbed . Menthol is highly fat-soluble therefore rapidly absorbed from the proximal gut .

Half Life

In a pharmacokinetic study, average half-life values of eugenol in plasma and blood were long (14.0 and 18.3 h, respectively), suggesting a potential accumulation of the drug following repeated administrations .

No pharmacokinetic data available.

Clearance

No pharmacokinetic data available.

Elimination Route

In a pharmacokinetic study, the metabolism of eugenol (the primary constituent of clove oil) was investigated in healthy male and female volunteers. It was quickly absorbed and metabolized after oral administration and was almost completely excreted in the urine within 24 hours of ingestion .

Peppermint oil is eliminated mainly via the bile following oral administration, with glucuronide and sulphate metabolites predominant . The metabolites, mainly menthol glucuronide and mono- or di-hydroxylated menthol derivatives, may also undergo approximately equal renal and fecal excretion . Renal recovery of total menthol within 24 hours was dose-dependent whereas the recovery in bile was substantially higher over 8 hours .

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding use

There are no known problems with the use of Clove oil during pregnancy and lactation.

No known restrictions.

Contraindication

Contraindicated in patients with achlorhydria. Also contraindicated for infants due to the potential risk of spasm of the tongue or respiratory arrest.
