0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For infants (0–6 months, newborns, babies) there is not enough safety information. The ingredient comes from a plant and can contain active compounds, so it is best to be cautious. It is not recommended for routine use on babies under 6 months.
Avoid using products that list Sophora Flavescens Root Extract on babies younger than 6 months unless a pediatrician specifically recommends it. If you are considering using a product on an older baby, ask your child’s doctor first, apply only a very small amount to a tiny patch of skin and wait 48 hours to check for any reaction, and never use on broken or sore skin. Keep products out of baby’s reach to prevent licking or swallowing.
Watch for redness, swelling, rash, unusual fussiness, vomiting, breathing difficulty or any sudden change after contact — stop use and call your pediatrician if these occur. Avoid application near the mouth, eyes, or on damaged skin. These precautions come from the provided ingredient data which shows low general concerns but little infant-specific safety testing, so extra caution is advised for newborns and young babies.
