Use
Rue has traditionally been used to treat certain neuromuscular conditions and to stimulate the onset of menstruation. Rue has an antispasmodic effect at relatively low doses and should be taken with caution. Because of rue's potential for severe adverse effects, clinical trials are limited; therefore, use cannot be recommended for any indication.
Dosing
There is no clinical evidence to support dosing recommendations for rue. In larger doses, rue is an emmenagogue and an abortifacient, and is considered unsafe.
Contraindications
Use is contraindicated during pregnancy.
Rue is native to Europe but is cultivated worldwide. An herbaceous evergreen half-shrub that grows to 20 to 60 cm in height, it is often found growing along roadsides and in waste areas. The leaves have a feathery appearance and are green or blue-green, and the flowers are yellow with petals that are 1 cm in diameter.(Coimbra 2020, Furniss 2007) Th...
Roman naturalist Pliny the Elder (23 to 79 AD) mentions 84 remedies containing rue.(Duke 1989) Traditional medicinal uses include hypoglycemic, antirheumatic, intestinal, hepatic, antihelmintic, antiepileptic, and antipyretic.(Khadhri 2017) The leaves, extracts, and other parts of rue have been used for hundreds of years for their insect repellent ...
Common rue contains a mixture of furoquinoline alkaloids in a concentration of approximately 1.5%, the most important of which appear to be arborine, arborinine, and gamma-fagarine.(Tyler 1987, Wolters 1981) The acridone alkaloids (rutacridone epoxide, hydroxyrutacridone epoxide) are found in greatest concentration in the roots.(Verzár-Petri 1976) ...
Antispasmodic effects
The rue plant and its extracts, in particular the tea and oil, have been reported to have antispasmodic effects on smooth muscles. This pharmacologic action has been attributed to the alkaloids arborine and arborinine and to coumarins, in particular rutamarin. While the pharmacologic half-life of arborinine is similar to that of papaverine, the half-life of rutamarin is approximately 20 times longer. These spasmolytic effects have also been observed in isolated GI smooth muscle.(Minker 1980)
There is no clinical evidence to support dosing recommendations for rue. In larger doses, rue is an emmenagogue and an abortifacient, and is considered unsafe.(Gruenwald 2000)
Avoid use. R. graveolens contains rutin, which has emmenagogue potential. Various species of rue can stimulate the basal fiber of the uterus. Rue is not recommended during lactation and is contraindicated in pregnancy, as it has the potential to stimulate uterine contractions and can cause abortion.(Bernstein 2020, Duke 2002, Miguel 2003)
Because the antispasmodic effect of rue occurs at relatively small doses, it should be taken with extreme caution. Safety of the plant during pregnancy has not been established; most of the literature describes potential abortifacient effects, indicating a contraindication of use during pregnancy.(Chevallier 1996, Duke 1989) Psoralens from rue that...
Extracts of rue have been found to be mutagenic in experimental mutagenicity screens, but the clinical importance of these findings has not been established.(Paulini 1987, Paulini 1989) The dried leaves are likely less toxic than the fresh leaves because of the loss of volatile oil.(Heskel 1983, Ortiz-Frutos 1995) A tincture of R. graveolens exhibi...
