Essential oils: what is the clinical tolerance in asthmatic patients?
Résumé
Essential oils in air-spray form are being more and more used for several purposes, even by allergic and asthmatic patients. Available data on the potentially dangerous effects of volatile organic compounds and terpenes contained in essential oils are scarce, and sometimes difficult to compare. Through the present work, we evaluated the clinical tolerance of asthmatic patients exposed to compounds emitted by an essential oils spray, and compared previous and new data available in the scientific literature, focusing on the aspects that may influence clinical results.
