title: [Toxic mustard plaster dematitis and phototoxic dematitis after application of bergamot oil].
abstract: Two cases that illustrate the risks attendant on the therapeutic use of natural medications by laypersons are reported. In the first case, the application of a mustard plaster triggered toxic dermatitis. In the second case, a session in a solarium after the external application of bergamot oil resulted in a phototoxic reaction.
