  • Abstract:
  • Lantana camara is a commonly found shrub that is known for both its invasive behavior and its traditional medicinal importance. Although it is often classified as a harmful weed, the plant has been widely used in folk medicine for treating infections, inflammatory conditions, fever, and various skin disorders. This paper explores the medicinal potential of Lantana camara by reviewing its botanical characteristics, key phytochemical components, therapeutic effects, traditional applications, and safety concerns. Scientific findings suggest that its biological activity supports many traditional claims, but its toxic nature demands careful and regulated use.
