Safe for preschoolers to use Trifolium Pratense?
ℹ️General Overview
For toddlers and preschoolers (ages 2–5), red clover used on the skin is considered very low risk. It is a plant extract with low levels of concern for cancer, allergies, and effects on growth or development according to available ingredient information and the U.S. FDA’s safety designation for limited food use.
✅What to Do
If you want to use a product that contains red clover on a child aged 2–5, first do a small patch test: put a tiny amount on the inside of the child’s forearm and wait 24 hours to check for redness or itching. Use the product as directed, avoid broken or irritated skin, keep it away from the eyes and mouth, and do not let the child eat the product. If your child has known plant or legume allergies (for example to clover, peas, beans, or soy), talk with your pediatrician before use.
⚠️Warnings
Watch for any reddening, swelling, itching, or blistering at the application site — stop use immediately if these occur. The ingredient information notes low-level concerns for allergies and recommends caution for people with plant or legume sensitivities. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has listed this ingredient as safe for limited use in food, which supports low overall concern, but topical reactions can still happen in sensitive children.
