¿Debo evitar ethyl pyrrolidone durante el embarazo? | VeriMom

N‑ethyl‑2‑pyrrolidone (NEP; CAS 2687‑91‑4) has a harmonised CLP classification Repr. 1B H360D (may damage the unborn child) in ECHA/EU documents, which mandates a high hazard score. Animal studies report developmental toxicity after oral dosing, and toxicokinetic data show placental/fetal exposure in rats. Topical cosmetic exposure would likely give low but measurable systemic absorption for an organic solvent, so exposure is scored as 1.

¿Es ethyl pyrrolidone seguro durante la lactancia?
Because NEP carries harmonised Repr. 1B H360D classification and shows demonstrated systemic and placental transfer in animal studies, the hazard for lactation is aligned with pregnancy (h=3). Mechanistic/tk data show systemic availability and metabolites in dam urine/blood; breastmilk transfer is not well characterized in humans but systemic presence supports potential exposure to nursing infants, so exposure is rated low but measurable for topical use.

¿Es ethyl pyrrolidone seguro para la piel del bebé?
Hazard and mechanism remain driven by the harmonised Repr. 1B classification and animal developmental/toxicokinetic data (h=3, m=2). Because infant skin (0–3 yr) has higher permeability and higher surface‑area‑to‑weight, exposure is increased by +1 relative to adults (adult e=1 → infant e=2) when there is measurable absorption. No infant‑specific safety data were found. ([echa.europa.eu](https://echa.europa.eu/documents/10162/380057b0-53a7-178a-3c2a-6fdf32826fe3?utm_source=openai))
