Curcumin-based treatment Norflo, has been shown to alleviate the symptoms of anterior uveitis in a recent study published in Clinical Ophthalmology, indicating a potential role for the anti-inflammatory treatment curcumin in eye inflammatory and degenerative conditions.
The study conducted by Dr Pia Allegri et al., examined the efficacy of an adjunctive-to-traditional treatment with Norflo tablets (curcumin-phosphatidylcholine complex; Meriva) in recurrent anterior uveitis of different aetiologies.
Norflo, administered twice daily, was found to be well-tolerated, reducing the symptoms of anterior uveitis of different origins in more than 80% of the 106 patients treated. Thus the study indicated that the treatment can play an important role in the adjunctive therapy of recurrent anterior uveitis of various origins.
