- Hazard and mechanism unchanged (no evidence of reproductive/Developmental toxicity). Exposure given immature infant skin is increased by one level per instructions: although adult topical absorption is negligible for large peptides, infants (0–3 yr) have higher surface‑area‑to‑weight and less mature barrier, so exposure scored as low but measurable (elevated from 0 to 1).
