Remifemin® Plus St.John’s Wort, as the name indicates is a stronger version of the original Remifemin® herbal medicine for relief of climacteric symptoms during menopause. Along with an increased amount of the proprietary extract of Actaea racemosa (Cimicifuga racemosa/black cohosh), Remifemin® Plus St.John’s Wort also contains St. John's Wort to support feeling more balanced. Remifemin® Plus St.John’s Wort is used to relieve climacteric menopausal symptoms such as hot flushes and night sweating as well as associated psychovegetative complaints often arising from menopause including nervous tension, irritability and agitation.
Remifemin® is a naturally derived alternative for the relief of the uncomfortable symptoms of menopause. Remifemin® and Remifemin® Plus St.John’s Wort contain a proprietary plant extract of Actaea racemosa (Cimicifuga racemosa/black cohosh) that has been the subject of more than 20 clinical studies in the last twenty years. Boasting 60 years of experience in menopause symptom relief, Remifemin® first became available in Germany in 1956 and has since been used by millions of women worldwide. Remifemin® does not contain any form of hormone.
How long will it take to work and how long can I take it for?
This will vary for each individual. Most women report relief after two to four weeks. As the results of treatment improve further on prolonged administration, Remifemin® Plus St.John’s Wort should be taken over a longer period. In order to avoid overlooking other diseases, a doctor should be consulted after six months.
What age can you use Remifemin® Plus St.John’s Wort?
From their mid to late 40's some women can experience early symptoms of menopause such as anxiety and emotional sensitivity as their bodies begin to change. The pre- or peri-menopausal period can last for several years and even whilst still menstruating, women can benefit from taking Remifemin Plus St.John’s Wort to provide relief of symptoms during this transition. Your GP should be consulted first to assess if symptoms are menopause related or due to other medical conditions.
