Calamine lotion is frequently applied topically to soothe minor skin irritations and itching, including those brought on by insect bites, poison ivy, or sunburn. It is not recommended to consume it because it is not meant for internal use. It is unlikely that ingesting a tiny amount of calamine lotion will result in significant injury, but it could induce mild stomach pain, nausea, or vomiting. The extent of any negative effects, however, can vary depending on a number of variables, including the amount consumed, the person's age and health, and whether the lotion contained any other potentially dangerous substances. It is advised to seek emergency medical attention if you or someone you know has consumed a sizable amount of calamine lotion, is displaying severe symptoms, or if you have any concerns.
