0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For babies 0–6 months (newborns, infants), this oat-derived ingredient is generally safe and mild when used in baby lotions. Available safety information shows low concern for cancer, allergy and effects on growth or development.
Use products specifically made for infants. Before wide use, try a small patch on your baby’s inner forearm or thigh and wait about 24 hours to see if any redness or rash appears. Start with a small amount, avoid applying to broken or irritated skin, and keep lotions away from the eyes and mouth. If your baby has eczema or a known food allergy, check with your pediatrician before using a new product.
The provided safety data lists low concern overall, but oat proteins can still cause allergic reactions in some children. Do NOT use if your baby has a known oat allergy. Watch for redness, rash, swelling, hives, wheezing or trouble breathing — if any of these happen, stop use immediately and contact your pediatrician or seek emergency care. Also avoid products that add fragrances or other common irritants unless they are labeled safe for newborn skin.
