Propolis has been used for centuries as a medical remedy in both humans and animals. Propolis can be found as a single basic product or as an additional compound in standardized drug formulations. The present research aimed to assess the antioxidant and antibacterial activity of four propolis-based natural products. The investigations were carried out on the following products: a propolis tincture; an aqueous propolis extract; an aqueous propolis extract with colloidal silver; and an ointment consisting of propolis, olive oil, and propolis wax. According to the obtained results, of the four products, the ointment showed the highest antioxidant activity. A higher antibacterial potential has also been demonstrated by the ointment compared to the other investigated formulas.
