The Buddleja scordioides Kunth Scrophulariaceae plant is known for its anti-inflammatory effects and is commonly used to combat symptoms related to gastrointestinal disorders such as diarrhea, pain and inflammation.

The aim of this research was to gather information on the phytochemical components present in Buddleja scordioides, summarize information related to the absorption, digestion and transport of herbal compounds along the gastrointestinal tract and define its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect. We found that Buddleja scordioides is a species used as a medicinal plant to treat symptoms associated with gastrointestinal inflammation process.

La medicina tradicional es un recurso alternativo para el tratamiento de múltiples síntomas asociados a patologías gastrointestinales como la inflamación. Las infusiones herbales, a diferencia de los medicamentos farmacológicos, contienen múltiples compuestos químicos de diversa naturaleza, que actúan sinérgicamente para dar una respuesta antiinflamatoria. La planta Buddleja scordioides Kunth Scrophulariaceae es conocida por sus efectos antiinflamatorios, y se utiliza comúnmente para combatir síntomas relacionados a desórdenes gastrointestinales como diarrea, dolor e inflamación. Es una planta de consumo popular y fácil de adquirir, por lo que es investigada en torno a su uso en la salud intestinal. El objetivo de esta investigación fue recopilar información de los componentes fitoquímicos presentes en Buddleja scordioides, resumir la información relacionada con la absorción, digestión y transporte de los compuestos herbales a lo largo del tracto gastrointestinal, y definir su efecto antioxidante y antiinflamatorio. Se encontró que Buddleja scordioides es una especie utilizada como planta medicinal para tratar síntomas asociados con procesos de inflamación gastrointestinal. El uso etnofarmacológico de la planta B. scordioides se encuentra respaldada por investigaciones científicas que atribuyen su actividad antioxidante y antiinflamatoria al contenido fitoquímico de la planta.
