    Bhagat S, Agarwal M, Roy V

    Published in International Journal of Surgery

    Key Findings

    Most trials of serratiopeptidase were small, of poor methodological quality and short duration, providing insufficient evidence for the claimed anti-inflammatory, anti-oedema and analgesic effects.

    Conclusions

    The existing evidence does not justify routine clinical use of serratiopeptidase.

    Limitations

    Included studies were largely unblinded, small and industry linked.

    Supplements Studied

    Most trials of serratiopeptidase were small, of poor methodological quality and short duration, providing insufficient evidence for the claimed anti-inflammatory, anti-oedema and analgesic effects.

    Outcomes Measured

    Evidence for the anti-inflammatory effects of serratiopeptidase is insufficient.
