A member asked:
What are the negative effects of using a detergent that you might be allergic to?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Allergic rash: The most common negative effect is a rash, that can be persistent for up to a month called contact dermatitis. The treatment of choice for contact dermatitis is avoidance of the contact allergen. Medications to treat this condition can have side effects. Diagnostic approaches can include patch testing by an allergist, if the cause of the rash is unclear.
