What is the incubation period for a poison ivy rash? Dermatologists suggest that the first exposure to poison ivy has an incubation period of about five to 21 days before the rash appears. However, repeated exposure to poison ivy results in the rash appearing more quickly (about 12-48 hours).
No, incubation periods are for living items such as bacteria and viruses. Poison Ivy is a reaction to the oils of the plant. How fast the rash and blisters will appear are dependent on a number of factors including personal sensitivity, temperature and amount of contact.
