5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For school-age children (5 years and older), feverfew leaf in topical products is generally low risk. Most kids will not have a problem, but a small number—especially those who are allergic to ragweed or daisies—may get a skin reaction.
Before using a new product with feverfew on your child, do a small patch test: put a tiny amount on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours. Use products made for children when possible, avoid applying to broken or inflamed skin, and start with a small area (face and neck are more sensitive). If your child has a history of plant allergies, eczema, or very sensitive skin, talk with your pediatrician before regular use.
Watch for redness, swelling, itching, bumps, or hives after applying a product with feverfew — if any of these happen, stop use and wash the area. Seek medical help if your child has trouble breathing or a severe reaction. This advice is based on the provided ingredient safety summary which notes a low-level risk mainly for allergic reactions.
