Hypericum perforatum oleum
Infused oil of St Johns Wort in olive oil; topical anti-inflammatory for nerve pain, bruises, and burns.
St. John's Wort oil (Hypericum perforatum oleum) is a traditional topical remedy prepared by infusing fresh or dried flowering tops in olive oil. It is primarily used for nerve pain, bruises, burns, and local inflammation. Key active constituents include hypericin, pseudohypericin, hyperforin, and flavonoids, which contribute to its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and wound-healing properties. Evidence for its efficacy is limited (Level C), with most support from traditional use and small clinical studies.
The oil's anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects are attributed to hyperforin, which inhibits cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX), reducing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis. Hypericin and pseudohypericin exhibit photodynamic activity, potentially enhancing wound healing and providing antimicrobial effects. Flavonoids and tannins contribute antioxidant and astringent actions, supporting tissue repair. Topical application may also modulate transient receptor potential (TRP) channels involved in pain perception.
