Frequently asked questions
- Is neotame safe for baby skin?
- No evidence was found that neotame is a reproductive toxicant or that it has a specific mechanism affecting development/infants. There are few or no dermal absorption studies for neotame in the public literature; for topical cosmetic use the expected dermal exposure is very low. Because infant skin has higher permeability and no infant‑specific dermal absorption data were located, exposure (e) for baby skin is assigned 1 (low but measurable) while hazard/mechanism remain 0.
