Are there any considerations when buying baby laundry and cleaning products for the safety of my baby?

Doctor's Answer

Thank you for the question. It is important to choose the correct laundry detergent for your child, especially if he or she has eczema or sensitive skin.

Choose detergents that are fragrance-free and hypoallergenic as these reduce the tendency to irritate the skin. There are some laundry detergents that are specially formulated for eczema prone skin.

It is also important to ensure that the detergents are thoroughly rinsed off from the clothes to minimize their contact on the skin.
