They offer soothing, analgesic, antispasmodic, anticonvulsant, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, wound-healing, haemostatic, diaphoretic, cholagogue, mild astringent, sedative, and analgesic properties. This herbal remedy contains essential oils (chamazulene, bisabolol oxides A and B, spatulenol, and levomenol); flavonoids (flavonol and flavone glycosides, aglycones including quercetin, isorhamnetin, and patuletin, as well as apigenin, chrysoeriol, and chrysosplenetin); hydroxycoumarins (umbelliferone and herniarin); and rhamnogalacturonan.
