    Avoid in individuals with known allergy/hypersensitivity to bishop's weed, its constituents, or members of the Apiaceae family. Reported allergic reactions include rhinitis and hives.

    Bishop's weed may cause the skin to become sensitive to ultraviolet light and cause reddening of the skin, blisters, dermatitis, increased skin coloration, and pigmentary retinopathy. Repeated contact may lead to photocontact allergy.
