Ethyl rosmarinate is a phenolic compound that can be isolated from Lycopus lucidus. Ethyl rosmarinate has antioxidative activity. Ethyl rosmarinate inhibits lung inflammation[1][2].

Ethyl rosmarinate is an anti-inflammatory and antioxidative compound present in Lycopus lucidusHyptis suaveolens and other medical plants th at potently inhibits LPS induced production of nitric oxide and prostaglandin E2 in alveolar macrophages. Ethyl rosmarinate induces relaxation in aortic rings via an endothelium-independent pathway.
