1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers (1-2 years), this root extract is generally considered low risk for serious long-term harms. However, there is limited safety data for very young children and plant extracts can sometimes irritate sensitive skin or cause an allergic reaction.
If you plan to use a product with this ingredient on your toddler: 1) Do a small patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours before wider use. 2) Use only a small amount and avoid broken skin, the face, eyes, nose and mouth. 3) Start with products made for children or gentle formulations. 4) Stop use immediately if you see redness, swelling, rash, blistering or if your child is uncomfortable. 5) Ask your pediatrician before using it regularly or over large skin areas.
Watch for signs of an allergic reaction (redness, hives, swelling, blisters, trouble breathing) and stop use if these happen. This advice is based on the provided safety listing which notes low-level concerns but limited child-specific data. Avoid using on infants under 1 year or on broken or irritated skin, and be extra cautious if your child has known sensitive skin or eczema.
