Important safety information - please read before use
Poplar buds naturally contain salicylates (aspirin-like compounds) in their sticky resin, and are the natural source of bee propolis. A few cautions are important.
- Aspirin / salicylate sensitivity: do NOT use if you are allergic or sensitive to aspirin or other salicylates.
- Children and teenagers: because of the salicylate content, do not give it to children or teenagers, especially during or after a viral illness (risk of Reye syndrome).
- Blood thinners: if you take a blood thinner such as warfarin, talk to a qualified healthcare practitioner before use.
- Propolis / balsam allergy: avoid this product if you are allergic to propolis or to balsam of Peru - it can cause skin or allergic reactions.
- Pregnancy / nursing: do NOT use during pregnancy; if nursing, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner first.
- Keep to the suggested serving and keep out of reach of children.
