Frequently asked questions
- Is phosphatidylglycerol safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP classification or SCCS/CIR flag for reproductive toxicity was found; the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) safety assessment for lecithins and other phosphoglycerides treats this class as safe-as-used in cosmetics and contains no pregnancy warnings. ECHA lists phosphatidylglycerols (CAS 92347-24-5) in its substance inventory but there is no harmonised reproductive hazard (H360/H361) entry. (CIR; ECHA).
- Is phosphatidylglycerol safe while breastfeeding?
- No data or regulatory classification indicating reproductive or lactation-specific hazard were identified. CIR’s assessment of lecithins/phosphoglycerides used in cosmetics includes phosphoglyceride class without breastfeeding-specific restrictions; ECHA shows no harmonised CLP lactation/teratogen classification. No peer‑reviewed human breastfeeding transfer or adverse‑effect studies for topical phosphatidylglycerol were found. (CIR; ECHA).
- Is phosphatidylglycerol safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of developmental or infant‑specific toxicity for topical phosphatidylglycerol was found (h/m remain 0). Phosphoglycerides are large, polar phospholipids with very low expected dermal bioavailability in adults; however infant skin barrier immaturity means exposure potential is higher, so per your scoring rules exposure is increased by +1 for 0–3 yr. CIR and ECHA provide no infant‑specific adverse data. (CIR; ECHA).
- How does VeriMom score phosphatidylglycerol?
