Frequently asked questions
- Is artemisia absinthium extract safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classification (ECHA Annex VI) or SCCS/CIR safety assessment specifically listing reproductive hazards for Artemisia absinthium extract was identified; peer‑reviewed literature reports phytochemical components such as thujone with neurotoxicity at high systemic exposures but not clear reproductive teratogenicity for the cosmetic extract. Topical cosmetic use would be expected to give low but measurable systemic exposure for some lipophilic constituents (PubChem/CosIng), so exposure is scored as low/measurable.
- Is artemisia absinthium extract safe while breastfeeding?
- No authoritative sources (harmonised CLP, SCCS, CIR) identify Artemisia absinthium extract as a lactation/breastfeeding hazard. Constituents potentially able to be systemically absorbed (e.g., volatile terpenes) could theoretically distribute into breastmilk at low levels, but no direct evidence was found.
- Is artemisia absinthium extract safe for baby skin?
- No infant-specific reproductive or developmental toxicity data were identified; because infant skin has higher permeability and surface‑area‑to‑weight, measured adult absorption (low) is conservatively increased by one category for 0–3 yr skin, producing a moderate exposure score. No evidence was found to change hazard or mechanism scores for infants.
