Eucalyptus essential oil is poisonous at high levels. Using excessively high amounts of eucalyptus oil can cause toxicity, unconsciousness and even death. If ingested in levels over 300-600mg per day, toxicity may occur. Ingestion of 30 - 60mL can be fatal in adults, and as little as 5mL ingested can cause unconsciousness and poisoning in children. In one case, 3 hours after a wash-off head lice treatment containing 11% eucalyptus, followed by a leave-on conditioner containing 2.5% eucalyptus, a 4 year old girl became tired and nauseous before becoming unconcious where she then suffered a seizure that lasted less than a minute. Call Poison Control if signs of poisoning appear. For obvious reasons, KEEP THIS OIL OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
