Abstract

The article presents a case study of a 49-year-old female patient, who developed face eczema after using Resveratrol BE cream for several weeks. Her dermatitis cleared after she stopped using the cream, and immediately recurred when she applied it again. Tests showed that she was allergic to Scutellaria baicalensis extracts (SBE) and resveratrol. The article discusses use of SBE in the traditional herbal remedy.
