Is this safe for 0-6 month old newborns to use Tropolone?
ℹ️General Overview
For infants (0-6 months): current safety information shows low concern for long-term harms, but Tropolone can sometimes irritate the skin. Newborn skin is very delicate, so extra caution is needed.
✅What to Do
If you have a product that contains Tropolone and your baby is 0–6 months: avoid using it every day. Do a small patch test on a clean area of skin and wait 48 hours before wider use. Don’t put it on broken or red skin. Keep it away from your baby’s face, eyes, nose and mouth. If you must use a medicated product with Tropolone, use the smallest amount needed and talk to your pediatrician first.
⚠️Warnings
There is limited evidence of skin irritation or allergic reactions reported by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). Watch for any redness, swelling, itchiness, blisters, or breathing changes after use and stop immediately if they occur. Also be careful if the product has other ingredients—those could cause problems even if Tropolone itself is low-risk.
