Pelargonium graveolens
A fragrant African geranium; the essential oil is used in aromatherapy for anxiety, skin conditions, and menopausal symptoms; geraniol and citronellol have antimicrobial and anxiolytic properties.
Pelargonium graveolens, a fragrant African geranium, yields an essential oil used in aromatherapy for anxiety, skin conditions, and menopausal symptoms. Its key active compounds include geraniol, citronellol, and linalool, which contribute to its anxiolytic and antimicrobial properties. Evidence is limited to preliminary studies and traditional use.
The anxiolytic effects of Pelargonium graveolens essential oil are primarily attributed to geraniol and citronellol, which modulate GABA-A receptors and enhance serotonergic activity, reducing stress responses. Antimicrobial action results from terpenoid-induced disruption of microbial cell membranes and inhibition of biofilm formation. Anti-inflammatory effects involve suppression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and lipoxygenase pathways, decreasing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis.
