Pantothenol is a monocarboxylic acid amide that is 3,3-dimethylbutanamide substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 2 and 4 and a 3-hydroxypropyl group at the carbomyl nitrogen. It has a role as a cholinergic drug and a provitamin. It is an amino alcohol and a monocarboxylic acid amide.
D-Panthenol/Dexpanthenol is an alcohol derivative of pantothenic acid, a component of the B complex vitamins and an essential component of a normally functioning epithelium. Dexpanthenol is enzymatically cleaved to form pantothenic acid, which is an essential component of Coenzyme A, which acts as a cofactor in many enzymatic reactions that are important for protein metabolism in the epithelium. Due to its good penetration and high local concentrations, dexpanthanol is used in many topical products, such as ointments and lotions for treatment of dermatological conditions to relieve itching or promote healing.
D-Panthenol, also referred to as pro-vitamin B5, is a stable alcohol derivative of pantothenic acid. It is a transparent, viscous liquid that is easily absorbed by the skin and hair. Panthenol is renowned for its moisturizing and conditioning properties. When applied topically, it is converted into pantothenic acid, which plays a vital role in maintaining healthy skin and hair.
Dexpanthenol/Panthenol is widely used in skincare products due to its ability to improve hydration and promote skin elasticity. It is often found in moisturizers, serums, and anti-aging creams. Panthenol helps to soothe and calm the skin, making it suitable for individuals with sensitive or inflamed skin conditions. In haircare, Panthenol is utilized in shampoos, conditioners, and styling products to enhance moisture retention, improve hair texture, and add shine.
