%X SUMMARY MESSAGE: There is no robust evidence that saw palmetto fruit extract is effective in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Evidence indicates that it is a safe product (at current doses) but with questionable efficacy. As with all herbal medicines, saw palmetto products differ in their pharmaceutical quality, and the implications of this should be considered.
