Cautions for Camphor

* It is not to be used internally.

* Camphor preparations should not be applied to badly burned or open wounds nor should they be used on young children.

* Another caution concerns the environment. Using camphor mothballs as an insect repellant in gardens contaminates the soil and enters the water table.

* Do not use in the facial area of children or infants as it can be a powerful convulsant.
