 Fluid Extract of the bark of Viburnum opulus (Cramp bark) in 45% ethanol and purified water.

Traditional Use and Recognition: Viburnum opulus monograph features in both the British and the USA Herbal Pharmacopoeas. Traditional use is predominately in Northern America and Canada, where it was used by native Americans as an anti-abortive, to remedy uterine prolapse, and as a spasmolytic for cramping pains in all parts of the body. 

Furthermore, Cramp Bark was used by Eclectic practitioners of the 19th century for all types of cramping. Indications included period cramps, threatened miscarriage, skeletal muscle cramping, spasm of the bladder and more. It was used interchangeably with Viburnum prunifolium (Black Haw), but was considered more specific to the uterus in its action and a more potent antispasmodic.

Modern Use: The lack of evidence based trials and studies on the safety of Viburnum opulus formulations limits its use, in spite of the efficacy of this herb in relieving muscle cramps and the associated pain. It is mostly prescribed for uterine cramps and  skeletal muscle cramping, particularly of the legs and back.

Contra-indications and CautionsCaution is advised where there is known allergy to other members of the Caprifoliaceae family, or where there have been previous hypersensitivity reactions to cramp bark.
