¿Es myristic acid seguro durante el embarazo?
Myristic acid (tetradecanoic acid, CAS 544-63-8) is a common saturated fatty acid used in cosmetics. There is no harmonised reproductive classification (no H360/H361) and no authoritative assessments (CIR/SCCS) identifying reproductive or developmental toxicity. PubChem GHS aggregated notifications indicate skin/eye/respiratory irritation hazards (H315,H319,H335) but these are irritation endpoints, not reproductive. Searches of regulatory databases and literature do not reveal reproductive toxicity signals; therefore hazard and mechanism scores are 0 and exposure from typical topical cosmetic use is considered negligible.

- ¿Es myristic acid seguro durante la lactancia?
- No evidence of reproductive or lactation-specific toxicity for myristic acid in regulatory assessments or peer-reviewed literature. Irritation alerts on PubChem relate to local effects, not systemic reproductive/toxic endpoints. Typical cosmetic topical use would not be expected to pose a lactation-specific hazard.
- ¿Es myristic acid seguro para la piel del bebé?
- No infant-specific developmental toxicity data or mechanistic concerns were identified. Myristic acid is a simple fatty acid with no known reproductive mechanism. Because infant skin has higher permeability than adult skin, a precautionary increase in exposure score is applied (+1) even though no safety alerts for developmental toxicity exist; the primary concern noted in databases is local irritation rather than systemic reproductive harm.
