Frequently asked questions

Is cardiospermum halicacabum flower/leaf/vine extract safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classification (ECHA Annex VI) and no CIR or SCCS safety assessment flagging reproductive hazard; PubMed search yields no reproductive/toxicology data for Cardiospermum halicacabum extract (CAS 89958-27-0). As a botanical extract used topically, dermal exposure is possible but no data indicate systemic reproductive toxicity, so hazard/mechanism scored 0 and exposure scored low (1). Sources consulted: ECHA Annex VI (no harmonised classification), PubChem, CosIng, PubMed.
Is cardiospermum halicacabum flower/leaf/vine extract safe while breastfeeding?
Same rationale as pregnancy: no regulatory or peer-reviewed evidence of reproductive/lactation hazards; topical use implies low but measurable potential for maternal systemic exposure. No data demonstrating transfer into breast milk or lactation-specific effects. Sources: ECHA Annex VI, PubChem, CosIng, PubMed.
Is cardiospermum halicacabum flower/leaf/vine extract safe for baby skin?
No infant-specific reproductive/toxicology data found. Given measurable topical absorption in adults (low), infant exposure via topical products is increased because of immature barrier and higher surface area-to-weight; exposure score raised by +1 per instruction. No evidence of developmental or specific skin toxicity in infants. Sources: CosIng, PubMed, ECHA Annex VI, PubChem.
