It's the same. Camphor is more common like the market name. Naphthalene is the component gangan
I beg to disagree,camphor(camphorene) is a chemical compound derived from plants with sweet smelling odour used as ornaments/spices in some cultures while naphthalene is a chemical used as mothballs/pesticides derived from aromatic compounds.

All these Nigerian doctors that'll just come out to make ridiculous claims. Don't eat rice, it's bad for you, don't eat suya don't eat this don't eat that, don't use this don't use that...


Very soon we'll have to stop drinking water.
Pls be quiet. Instead of taking time to make ur research, u just talking ignorantly. He is very right. Also Fava beans ( favism) , sulpha drugs, this harsh powder( used to be called dusting powder. Don't know if I spelt it correctly tho),metholator should be avoided in newborn. All linked to jaundice in newborn.

Camphor is not naphthalene. Naphthalene is a simpler 2-ring polyaromatic hydrocarbon while camphor is more a complex compound. Though both are very volatile and used as insect repellant s. Human body has a system of transforming naphthalene to non-toxic byproducts but sometimes carcinogenic byproducts can be formed. Similar enzymatic systems are used for camphor detoxification. I am not sure about the connection between camphor and jaundice. A search on Google could help.
