VeriMom¿Es camphor seguro para la piel del bebé?
Evidence from multiple clinical reports and reviews shows that young children can develop acute neurotoxicity (including seizures) after camphor ingestion and after dermal/inhalational exposures to camphor-containing products; pediatric cases and poison-control guidance indicate that small doses can produce severe toxicity. This establishes a suspected (non‑reproductive) hazard for infants exposed topically (scored here per user request for 0–3 yr skin safety). A demonstrated mechanism of systemic neurotoxicity and measurable dermal absorption supports m=2. Because infant skin has higher absorption per weight and reported dermal exposures have produced toxicity in toddlers, exposure for baby skin is moderate (adult topical absorption scored as 1; +1 for baby skin → 2).
