Regulatory evidence across markets

None of the 13 markets tracked here holds an imported rule under the name SCOPARONE.

That is a statement about this inventory, not about the law: no imported rule is not evidence that a substance is permitted. A rule may exist under a different name, under a CAS or EC number this glossary entry does not carry, or in a dataset not yet imported.

Scoparone

Scoparone is a member of the class of coumarins that is esculetin in which the two hydroxy groups at positions 6 and 7 are replaced by methoxy groups. It is a major constituent of the Chinese herbal medicine Yin Chen Hao, and exhibits a variety of pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, and anti-tumor activities. It has a role as an antihypertensive agent, an antilipemic drug, an immunosuppressive agent, an anti-allergic agent, an anti-inflammatory agent and a plant metabolite. It is a member of coumarins and an aromatic ether. It is functionally related to an esculetin. — ChEBI
