Overview

Licorice Extract (Glycyrrhiza Uralensis) and Glycyrrhiza inflata extract (C. inflata) are extracts from the roots of the legume licorice root. Licorice Extract has been used medicinally for highly effective coughs and as a mild laxative. It promotes the ejection of mucus or exudate from the lungs, bronchi, and trachea; sometimes extended to antitussives. Glycyrrhetinic acid has a corticosteroid-like structure, thus is useful as an anti-inflammatory and co-emulsifier to treat skin disorders and in cosmetics. Licorice root extract is used as a foaming agent in beers and fire extinguishers. Most commonly, however, Licorice extract is used as a flavoring agent to sweeten cigarettes, cigars, and pipe tobacco.

There are 3 acute inflammation models in mice with licorice decoction p-xylene-induced ear swelling, egg white-induced foot swelling, and acetic acid-induced increase in the permeability of capillaries in the abdominal cavity of mice.

As well as the early inflammation exudation and edema of the rat granuloma chronic inflammation model induced by cotton ball, it has an obvious inhibitory effect, so the anti-inflammatory effect is good.
