    Product Description

    Hypophyllanthin is an active principle of P. amarus, a plant studied for its potential to treat hepatotoxicity.1 In Caco-2 cells 100 µM hypophyllanthin has been shown to reversibly inhibit P-glycoprotein (also known as multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1)) function without effect on MDR2 activity.2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
