- Is porphobilinogen lactam safe for baby skin?
- No infant‑specific toxicology or dermal absorption data were found. There is no regulatory restriction or safety assessment (SCCS/CIR) flagging concern for infant topical use; therefore hazard and mechanism default to 0. Exposure (e) is scored 0 because no data showing measurable dermal absorption from cosmetic use were located. If future dermal absorption data appear showing measurable uptake, infant exposure should be re‑evaluated (see data gaps).
