Abstract
Over the past decade there has been a dramatic increase in the consumption of complementary and alternative medicine. The market for supplements and topical agents has grown, with recent reports estimating its value at 6.63 billion dollars. As more consumers utilize these largely unregulated products, it follows that healthcare providers will encounter new injury patterns related to them. Here we will discuss the evaluation and management of phototoxic reaction injuries sustained in a healthy 25-year-old female as a result of exposure to essential oils in the setting of ultra-violet A radiation.
