FAQ
- ¿Es hydrolyzed wintergreen extract seguro durante el embarazo?
- Regulatory and scientific reviews treat methyl salicylate (the main constituent of wintergreen) as a substance of reproductive concern (SCCS/ECHA activity and ECHA/C&L references indicate a Repr.2/H361-level concern), so hazard is scored as suspected (h=2). Salicylates are metabolized to salicylate which is known to cross the placenta (mechanism demonstrated), so m=2. Dermal use of methyl salicylate produces measurable systemic exposure (used clinically in topical analgesics), so topical exposure is moderate (e=2). Sources: SCCS scientific advice on children’s exposure to methyl salicylate; ECHA/C&L and registration pages; CIR safety assessment of salicylates.
- ¿Es hydrolyzed wintergreen extract seguro durante la lactancia?
- Same intrinsic hazard (methyl salicylate → salicylate) so h=2. Mechanistic evidence of salicylate systemic distribution and transfer supports m=2. Dermal/topical products containing methyl salicylate can lead to measurable systemic levels; breastmilk transfer of salicylates is plausible based on known salicylate pharmacokinetics, so exposure for a breastfeeding parent is moderate (e=2). No infant-specific milk-transfer quantitative studies for methyl salicylate were identified in the searched sources.
- ¿Es hydrolyzed wintergreen extract seguro para la piel del bebé?
- Hazard and mechanism follow the parent compound (methyl salicylate) → h=2, m=2. Because infants (0–3 yr) have higher skin permeability and surface-area-to-weight, and regulators (SCCS) have issued specific tighter limits for methyl salicylate in products for 0–3 yr, exposure for baby skin from topical products is increased by +1 (adult e=2 → infant e=3). SCCS specifically reviewed children’s exposure and set much lower concentration limits for 0–3 year products, indicating elevated concern for this age group.
