Major Interactions (Avoid): - Concurrent use with other essential oils or topical products that may increase risk of skin sensitisation. - Use with drugs that lower the seizure threshold, as menthol can provoke neurological excitability in rare cases.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Co‑administration with CYP450‑inhibiting drugs, which could alter metabolism of menthol. - Use with anticoagulant therapy, as high concentrations of menthol may have mild platelet‑affecting properties. - Combination with strong respiratory stimulants, requiring observation for additive effects.
