The roots of Iantana are occasionally used as a gargle and Found wash, because of the tannin content. The plant has been reported to contain an alkaloid, antanine, which is antispasmodic and antipyretic. The leaves’ strong odor is due to volatile oil. In animals, lantana causes photosensitization and hepatic damage. It is not known if these same effects occur in human beings.
