Can older babies use Chamomilla Recutita Matricaria Extract?
ℹ️General Overview
For babies aged 6–12 months (infants), chamomile extract is usually gentle and can help calm skin when used in normal amounts. Most safety notes say low concern, but there are a few reports of rare reactions and some gaps in safety data.
✅What to Do
Use products with this extract in small amounts and follow label directions. Do a small patch test on a tiny area of your baby’s skin and wait 24 hours before wider use. Prefer rinse-off products for very young babies and avoid applying to broken or irritated skin. If your baby has known plant or pollen allergies (like ragweed), be extra cautious.
⚠️Warnings
Stop use and call your pediatrician if you see redness, swelling, hives, blisters, worsening rash, or if your baby becomes very sleepy or unusually irritable after use. The caution comes from safety reviews and a few human case reports (Cosmetic Ingredient Review, European Chemicals Agency, and published case studies). Also note some product programs limit use of this extract unless manufacturers provide supporting safety data—check product labeling and company information.
