Is this suitable for use during pregnancy?
Not recommended for use during pregnancy.
Is this suitable for children?
Keep out of reach of children. Research has shown that exposure to eucalyptus oil before the age of 2 years old can have negative effects on the respiratory and nervous systems. Essential oils are considered too strong for use on babies' skin (0-24 months) and can be overwhelming for their developing systems. When using in a diffuser, use fewer drops than you would for an adult (e.g. 2-3 drops).
Is this suitable to use around pets?
Not recommended for use around pets.
Can this oil be ingested?
