Rutin (trihydrate)

Rutin trihydrate is a bioflavonoid composed of the flavonol quercetin and the disaccharide rutinose. It exhibits anti-inflammatory and antiproliferative properties. It also acts as an antioxidant by scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) . It lowers ROS levels, which in turn reduces oxidative stress in neurons, thereby controlling neuropathy (including auditory neuropathy) in patients with diabetes.
