This section is provided for qualified healthcare practitioners as professional education. It summarises selected ingredient-level and traditional-use research. It does not represent additional ARTG indications for AV/AT.

A research-informed traditional formulation

AV/AT combines three concentrated aqueous botanical extracts selected for their established use in traditional Chinese medicine and their continuing scientific research interest.

The formulation is traditionally used in Chinese medicine to relieve mild fever, symptoms of common colds and flu, and symptoms of sore throat and pharyngitis.

Research involving the individual ingredients provides practitioners with additional context for understanding the formulation.

Ingredient research highlights

Houttuynia cordata

Houttuynia cordata has a long history of use in traditional Asian medicine and has attracted considerable research interest for its phytochemical composition and biological activity.

Laboratory research using Houttuynia cordata water extracts has investigated interactions with viral attachment and cellular inflammatory signalling pathways. In cell models, researchers observed effects during the early stages of viral interaction and changes involving the NF-κB pathway.

Lonicera japonica

Lonicera japonica flower is widely used within traditional Chinese medicine and is frequently studied in relation to throat discomfort, feverish presentations and upper-respiratory symptom contexts.

Experimental research has examined the phytochemical constituents and inflammatory-response pathways associated with Lonicera japonica extracts. Clinical studies have also investigated multi-herb preparations containing Lonicera japonica in people experiencing throat symptoms.

Taraxacum mongolicum

Taraxacum mongolicum has an established history of use in traditional Chinese medicine and remains an active subject of phytochemical and pharmacological research.

Preclinical studies of Taraxacum mongolicum water extracts have investigated oxidative and inflammatory-response pathways. Experimental models have reported changes in signalling pathways associated with inflammatory responses, including PI3K, Akt, mTOR and NF-κB pathways.
