VeriMom¿Debo evitar ethylhexyl methacrylate durante el embarazo? | VeriMom
No EU Annex II/III ban or harmonised CLP classification was found; some registrants/SDSs/self‑classifications list H361 (suspected reproductive toxicant) but these appear to be company/self classifications on ECHA dossiers and SDSs rather than an EU harmonised Annex VI entry. OECD‑422 style reproductive/developmental screening studies have been performed (reported in REACH dossiers) but the weight of public data does not show a harmonised CMR Category 1 (H360/H350/H340) for this single substance. Given the structural class (methacrylate ester monomer) and presence of registrant self‑classification, I score hazard as a class/structural concern (h=1), mechanism as theoretical/structural (m=1), and exposure from typical topical cosmetic use as low but measurable (e=1). Sources: ECHA registration dossiers, CIR group assessment of methacrylate monomers, EWG entry.

- ¿Es ethylhexyl methacrylate seguro durante la lactancia?
- Same rationale as pregnancy: no harmonised CMR classification or EU ban; registrant/SDS H361 listings exist (self‑classification) and animal OECD 422 screening studies were carried out per REACH dossiers. Breastfeeding uses the same hazard/mechanism rating as pregnancy; typical topical cosmetic exposure is low but measurable (e=1). No specific breast‑milk transfer data was located.
- ¿Es ethylhexyl methacrylate seguro para la piel del bebé?
- Hazard and mechanism retain the adult scores (no infant‑specific reproductive/teratology data found). Because infant (0–3 yr) skin has higher permeability and surface‑area‑to‑weight, exposure score is increased by +1 (adult e=1 → baby e=2). No infant dermal absorption or infant toxicity studies specific to 2‑ethylhexyl methacrylate were located.
