0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For newborns and babies under 6 months: the available safety information shows low concerns, but meadowsweet has aspirin-like natural chemicals that can be absorbed through the skin. Because very young babies are more sensitive, I recommend being cautious.
Do not use products containing meadowsweet extract on babies younger than 6 months unless a pediatrician tells you to. If a doctor approves use, apply only a very small amount to a small area of healthy skin and watch closely. Never apply to broken, irritated, or inflamed skin. If you are unsure, choose a product formulated specifically for newborn skin or ask your child’s healthcare provider.
Stop use and contact your pediatrician right away if you see a rash, redness, swelling, breathing difficulty, unusual sleepiness, persistent vomiting, or anything that seems abnormal. The source safety data notes low concerns generally, but because of the ingredient's salicylate content and limited infant-specific data, extra caution is advised.
