ANSWER: Sesquiterpene Lactones

The correct answer is D. Permethrin

Correct Answer Explanation

Patients with allergies to plants in the Asteraceae or Compositae family (chrysanthemum, ragweed, sunflower, artichoke, arnica, daisy, and marigold) should not be given permethrin, as it may cross react. The relevant potential allergen is sesquiterpene lactone.
