For babies 6–12 months old (infants, older babies), Tributyl Citrate is considered low risk based on available safety assessments. It is not commonly used in many baby products, but when it is used at low concentrations it has shown low links to cancer, allergies, or developmental harm.
If a product for your 6–12 month old lists Tributyl Citrate: choose products made or labeled for babies, avoid adult or high-concentration formulas, do a small patch test on a small area of skin and wait 24 hours to check for redness or rash, avoid using on broken or irritated skin, and stop use and see your pediatrician if any reaction appears. Prefer products where the manufacturer states it is safe for infants or provides concentration information.
Watch for skin redness, swelling, itching, blistering, or other signs of irritation or allergy and stop use immediately if these occur. Be aware that industry reviewers recommend limits on how much of this ingredient is used in products and that there are data gaps about the maximum concentrations used in real products (Cosmetic Ingredient Review). Some verification programs restrict use of this ingredient unless manufacturers provide safety substantiation; if you are unsure, choose baby-specific products or avoid it.
