Individuals allergic to pollen from a weed called mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) can develop an allergy to camomile because of the similarity between the allergens (proteins) in both plants. They react to the herb with respiratory tract symptoms (e.g.wheezing), vomiting, cramps, diarrhoea or even more severe reactions like a skin rash. Individuals react to dried, boiled or fresh camomile plants or extracts.
