Lantana camara is a plant that is used empirically for traditional medicine. This plant has the potential to be developed as an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant drug because it contains flavonoids, saponins, tannins, alkaloids[1] essential oils[19], carbohydrates, proteins, glycosides, oligosaccharides, kinins, steroids, triterpenoids, and sesquiterpenes[2]. Therefore this article is created in order to provide information about the various research that supports evidence of conformity with the use of this plant empirically as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Antioxidant activities were obtained in Lantana camara plants by using the DPPH method which showed high IC50 values compared to the standard drug. The anti-inflammatory activity of lantana leaves showed that they had different anti-inflammatory effects depending on the dose given. From the results of the review, empirical evidence of pharmacological activity was found from the use of the lantana plant leaves.
