Rationale.
Bacopa monnieri, popularly known as Brahmi, has been traditionally used in Ayurveda since ages for its memory enhancing properties.
However, data on placebo-controlled trial of Bacopa monnieri on intellectual sample is scarce.
Hence this study was planned to evaluate the effect of Bacopa monnieri on memory of medical students for six weeks.
Objective.
To evaluate the efficacy of Bacopa monnieri on memory of medical students with six weeks’ administration.
Method and Material.
This was a randomized double blind placebo-controlled noncrossover, parallel trial.
Sixty medical students of either gender from second year of medical school, third term, regular batch, were enrolled from Government Medical College, Nagpur, India.
Baseline biochemical and memory tests were done.
The participants were randomly divided in two groups to receive either 150 mg of standardized extract of Bacopa monnieri (Bacognize) or matching placebo twice daily for six weeks.
All baseline investigations were repeated at the end of the trial.
Students were followed up for 15 days after the intervention.
Results.
Statistically significant improvement was seen in the tests relating to the cognitive functions with use of Bacopa monnieri.
Blood biochemistry also showed a significant increase in serum calcium levels (still within normal range).
