Pyrola rotundifolia
European forest herb used in folk medicine for urinary, kidney, and anti-inflammatory conditions similar to bearberry.
Pyrola rotundifolia (round-leaved wintergreen) is a European forest herb traditionally used for urinary tract and kidney conditions, similar to bearberry. Its primary modern applications include urinary antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and diuretic effects, attributed to active compounds such as arbutin, homoarbutin, ericolin, and tannins. The herb is typically administered as a tea from dried leaves at a dosage of 2-4 g.
Arbutin, a hydroquinone glycoside, is hydrolyzed in the gut to hydroquinone, which is conjugated and excreted in urine, providing a urinary antiseptic effect by inhibiting bacterial adhesion. Methyl salicylate contributes anti-inflammatory and analgesic actions via COX inhibition, while tannins provide astringent and mild diuretic effects through renal tubule irritation. The combination of these compounds supports the herb's traditional use as a kidney and bladder tonic.
