Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Sickle-leaf hare's ear (Bupleurum falcatum) has a long history of use in traditional medicine, particularly within Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and certain folk medicinal systems. In these contexts, Bupleurum species, including Sickle-leaf hare's ear, are often included in herbal formulas intended to address various digestive complaints, sometimes including diarrhea. The traditional rationale is not typically based on the modern biomedical understanding of diarrhea, but rather on TCM concepts such as "clearing heat," "regulating liver qi," or "harmonizing the stomach." However, direct scientific evidence supporting the effectiveness of Sickle-leaf hare's ear for treating diarrhea is minimal. Most clinical and pharmacological research on Bupleurum has focused on its purported hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory properties, not on its use for diarrhea specifically. Animal and in vitro studies have looked at certain saponins (saikosaponins) found in Bupleurum species, but their relevance to diarrhea management has not been established. Thus, while traditional use exists and is occasionally cited in herbal reference works, modern high-quality clinical trials or mechanistic studies specifically validating its use for diarrhea are lacking. As a result, the evidence level is low, and current recommendations for its use in this context are based more on tradition than on robust scientific validation.
