Expert Verdict

Lantana camara contains hepatotoxic pentacyclic triterpenoids (lantadenes) concentrated primarily in leaves and berries; a hydrosol (leaf water) carries lower risk than extracts but requires toxicological assessment given the plant's well-documented toxicity profile. Traditional ethnobotanical use as antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory; the hydrosol form captures water-soluble volatile and semi-volatile compounds from steam distillation
