The aim of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was to investigate the efficacy of ‘Five Flower Remedy’® also known as Rescue Remedy®, for examination anxiety in healthy university students. One hundred university students were recruited. They were registered at the University of Exeter, aged between 18 to 65 years, and enrolled to undertake university examinations between May to July 1998. Participants were randomized to take one to four doses of either ‘Five Flower Remedy’ or indistinguishable placebo during day 1 to 7 of the experiment. Self-reported anxiety was quantified using the 40-item Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) as the primary outcome measure. Visual analogue scales were used as the secondary outcome measure to allow the determination of daily anxiety scores. Forty five percent of volunteers completed the study (21 subjects in the experimental and 24 in the placebo group). Reporting of anxiety, as measured by the state component of the STAI at enrolment, was not found to differ between verum and placebo and no gender differences were noted. However, self-reports of trait anxiety were found to be lower in men compared to women at enrolment. Eight days before examination, men reported significantly lower levels of state anxiety but no significant differences were subsequently identified the evening before the examination. No significant differences were identified between or within groups for mean values of the daily VAS scores or indeed the linear contrast variable constructed to determine any trends associated with the weekly VAS reports. It is concluded that ‘Five Flower Remedy’ had no specific effects in treating anxiety under these trial conditions.

Terapia floral na evolução do parto e na tríade dor-ansiedade-estresse: estudo quase-experimental

To systematically review the available evidence of the effect of Bach flower remedies (BFR) on the improvement of symptoms and behavior in children and adolescents with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This systematic review with meta-analysis was developed following PRISMA recommendations and the protocol was registered in PROSPERO. The search for controlled trials was performed in Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Embase, PubMed and LILACS and in grey literature from their inceptions until March, 2023. The population was children and adolescents diagnosed with ADHD. The intervention included the use BFR and the control included placebo or conventional therapies group. The outcome included improvement of symptoms and behavior. RoB 2.0 was used to assess the risk of bias, while GRADE was used to assess the quality of evidence. Stata version 16.0 was used to perform the meta-analysis. Of the 457 studies identified, only 4 studies that met the inclusion criteria remained and were included in the data analysis. The agreement between the reviewers for risk of bias assessment, based on the kappa statistic, was 0.91. Three studies reported improvement in ADHD symptoms with BFR. The studies presented some concerns regarding the risk of bias and the quality of evidence was “low”. The meta-analysis showed a positive effect favoring BFR (z=2.57, p=0.01) versus control with an effect size of 0.80 (0.19–1.42:95%CI). I2 test value was 35.96%, indicating moderate heterogeneity among the studies. BFR can have some effect on ADHD. However, further studies with higher methodological quality and long-term follow-up period are needed to reinforce these findings.

In 1930, Dr Edward Bach developed flower essences known as Bach flowers. Today, over 70 years later, they are becoming more and more popular and are used by many practitioners, despite a total lack of scientific support for their use. A review of the literature on the controversial use of this alternative treatment is discussed.
