Comfrey Cream is intended for short-term use only — small amounts on unbroken skin, not covered by a dressing, for up to 10 days at a time. Use should not exceed 4–6 weeks in a year.

Comfrey Cream contains naturally occurring pyrrolizidine alkaloids, which carry a risk of toxicity if too much is used, used for too long, or if covered by a dressing (which increases absorption). For this reason it is a Registered medicine and restricted to short-term use only.

Do not apply Comfrey on occlusive dressings (air and water tight). If you are under the care of a practitioner for any disease or serious condition, please discuss with them before starting any M&P products. If you are taking any medications, consult with your healthcare professional.

Herbal Creams are very well tolerated and safe for all to use, and may be used when on medications. If you experience any skin irritation, please discontinue use and consult your practitioner, as some people experience sensitivity to herbal extracts.

This is a blanket statement applied to the herbal cream range as the creams are not sterile and not intended for use on deep wounds or deep burns. However, Herbal Creams can safely be used on minor skin abrasions, minor cuts and mild skin irritation. Tea Tree or Calendula are suitable where skin may be slightly compromised. The exception is Comfrey cream, which should not be occluded (covered with a dressing) and should only be used as directed and for its specified label indications.

Based on extensive research by our Regulatory Affairs Manager, there is no evidence that Calendula is contraindicated in pregnancy or breastfeeding. Calendula does not appear in the TGA's pregnancy prohibited list, and the NSW Health/Mothersafe herbal medicines factsheet does not mention Calendula as a concern. Our product labelling meets all TGA requirements. If you have specific concerns, please consult your healthcare provider. We are happy to offer a goodwill refund if you prefer not to continue use — please contact customerservice@mandp.com.au.
