Use of topical herbal remedies and cosmetics: a questionnaire-based investigation in dermatology out-patients
Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, 10/27/09
Corazza M et al. – Herbal preparations were widely used in the examined population, but, despite the common belief in the innocuous nature of botanical extracts, the incidence of side–effects referred by the patients confirms that they should be regarded as a potential source of adverse skin events. The lack of adequate patch testing in case of suspected contact allergic dermatitis, incomplete or misleading product labelling, and the risk of chemical adulteration may represent further concerns as regards application of botanical products.
