As reported in the literature, benzopyrones (alpha and gamma) have important effects on the microcirculation through various mechanisms. Coumarins are an alpha-benzopyrone as derivatives of Melilotus Officinalis, while bioflavonoids are a gamma-benzopyrone and include Rutin. Alpha-benzopyrones have two fundamental pharmacological effects: they have pro-lymphokinetic action by activating contractility of lymphangions; and the activation of macrophages to provide a proteolytic effect. Gamma-benzopyrones, such as Rutin, have an important anti-exuding and membrane stabilizing effect. Bromelain is known for its anti-inflammatory effect. The present study enrolled 52 patients with primary and/or secondary lymphedema in clinical stages I or II (according to the ISL classification) with 31 cases involving the lower limbs and 21 cases involving the upper limbs. All subjects were given for six months a natural compound consisting of 100 mg of natural Melilotus, that contains 20 grams of Coumarin, 300 mg of Rutin and 100 mg of Bromelain. The following parameters were studied at zero time (T0), after three months (T1), and after six months of treatment (T2): pitting, Stemmer's sign, measurement of limb circumferences, measurement of superficial tissue thickness in the affected limbs using ultrasound, and blood tests to evaluate hepatic function (ALT, AST, GGT, total and fractional bilirubin). At the end of the treatment (T2), the following results were observed: disappearance of pitting in 72% of the cases; unchanged Stemmer's sign; average decrease in limb circumferences of 4.2 cm; and average reduction of the superficial thickness of 29%. There was no variation in the liver function parameters examined. The combination of natural compounds (Melilotus, Rutin, and Bromelain) has been shown to be a valuable aid in the clinical control of both primary and secondary lymphedema of clinical stages I and II as well as in control of inflammatory phenomena related to chronic stasis. There were no side effects and no alteration of liver function parameters found.
