Herniaria glabra
European herb used since antiquity for urinary conditions, hernias, and respiratory complaints; approved in Germany for urinary spasms.
Rupturewort (Herniaria glabra) is a traditional European herb historically used for urinary tract disorders, hernias, and respiratory complaints. Its modern applications include spasmolytic, anti-inflammatory, diuretic, and antimicrobial effects, attributed to active compounds such as herniarin, umbelliferone, saponins, coumarins, and flavonoids. Evidence is limited to preliminary studies and traditional use, with German regulatory approval for urinary spasms.
The spasmolytic activity of Herniaria glabra is primarily due to coumarins (herniarin, umbelliferone) that act as calcium channel blockers, relaxing smooth muscle in the urinary tract. Its diuretic effect is mediated by flavonoids and saponins increasing renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate. Anti-inflammatory properties involve inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 and lipoxygenase pathways, while antimicrobial action is linked to coumarins and saponins disrupting bacterial cell membranes.
