Abstract in brief

  • Lavender is frequently used in aromatherapy and household products, and it can cause allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) in some individuals.
  • A review of patient data from Australia between 1993 and 2017 found that out of 2178 patients tested, 49 (about 2.2%) showed a positive reaction to lavender, with 27 diagnosed with ACD, mainly from personal care products and essential oils.
  • Although lavender rarely causes ACD, it remains important to recognize as a potential allergen due to its widespread use in everyday products.]
