Overview

Members of the Eucalyptus genus are quick-growing evergreen trees or shrubs. The oils of the leaves and shoots are used for medicinal purposes: for example, as an ingredient in tablets for soothing sore throat. The oils may be divided roughly into 3 classes of commercial importance: (i) the medicinal oils, which contain substantial amounts of eucalyptol (also known as cineol); (ii) the industrial oils, containing terpenes; and (iii) the aromatic oils.

Eucalyptus is known to cause cutaneous diseases through its oil or pollens, and respiratory allergic diseases through its pollens. Eucalyptus pollen may result in symptoms of asthma, hay fever and conjunctivitis.

An allergy to Eucalyptus (Nilgiri / Safeda) triggers a reaction in an individual's immune system. The body views certain substances as toxic and produces IgE antibodies to these contaminants. These antibodies cause histamine to be released, which will cause the symptoms of an allergic reaction.
