Swertiamarin is a typical natural iridoid with strong biological activities. In recent years, with the adoption of modern research methods, a lot of pharmacological functions of swertiamarin have been found, including hepatoprotective effect, antihyperlipidaemic activity, antidiabetic, antinociceptive activity, depressant effect, and anti-inflammatory activities, etc. Swertiamarin is widely used in pharmaceutical, cosmetic field.

Swertiamarin is a typical natural iridoid compound with strong biological activity. It has been found to possess a variety of pharmacological effects, including hepatoprotective, lipid-lowering, anti-diabetic, sedative, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-cancer, anti-mutagenic, and immune-enhancing activities. Swertiamarin has broad application potential in the pharmaceutical, functional food and health food, and cosmetic fields.

Swertiamarin Functions:

(I) Hepatoprotective and Cholagogue Effects:

1. Hepatoprotective and Enzyme-Lowering Effects: Significantly protects against liver damage (including viral, drug-induced, and chemical-induced hepatitis), lowers transaminase levels, reduces hepatosplenomegaly, and prevents liver damage caused by hypoxia.

2. Hepatocyte Repair: Promotes hepatocyte regeneration, helps restore the normal structure of liver tissue, and strengthens the body's immune reconstruction.

3. Cholagogue and Stomachic Effects: Has heat-clearing and cholagogue functions, significantly increases bile secretion, and effectively treats cholecystitis.

(II) Antispasmodic and Analgesic Effects:

1. Antispasmodic: It has a significant antispasmodic effect on smooth muscle, effectively inhibiting the autonomic rhythmic activity of isolated ileum, uterus, gallbladder smooth muscle, and bile duct sphincter, and antagonizing the effects of various stimulants.

2. Analgesic and Sedative Effects: It has significant analgesic and sedative effects, which is the pharmacological basis for treating abdominal pain caused by gastrointestinal spasms, gastroenteritis, and biliary ascariasis.

(III) Broad-Spectrum Health Benefits:

1. Anti-inflammatory and Anti-infective: It has strong anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antiviral effects.

2. Immune and Antioxidant Effects: As a natural antioxidant, it helps improve the body's immune function.

3. Dermal Application: After absorption through the skin, it can dilate capillaries and activate the enzyme system of skin cells, and is considered useful for treating alopecia.

Swertiamarin's main applications include:

1. In the cosmetics industry, swertiamarin is used as an active ingredient to promote skin microcirculation, provide antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, and is also considered a treatment for alopecia areata.

2. In functional foods, swertiamarin is used as a functional food additive or raw material with hepatoprotective and stomach-strengthening effects.

3. In the pharmaceutical industry, swertiamarin is used to prepare symptomatic treatments for various types of acute and chronic viral hepatitis and drug-induced hepatitis; drugs related to gastroenteritis and biliary ascariasis; and combination drug compositions for treating pleurisy or community-acquired pneumonia.

4. In research experiments, it is used for content determination, identification of standards, and various pharmacological studies.
