Canavan, Don; Yarnell, Eric
- Abstract
Poison oak and related hypersensitivity dermatitides are age-old problems that have historically been treated with herbal medicines before the availability of corticosteroids. Few of these historical therapies have been rigorously investigated. The case presented here provides some insight into the potential efficacy of certain herbs for relieving mild-to-moderate poison ivy dermatitis.
