Amfepentorex is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Its specific function may vary between products. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.
Amfepentorex is a phenylethylamine derivative acting as a sympathomimetic agent with anorexic (appetite-suppressing) properties, similar to amphetamine-type stimulants. It is not listed in any EU cosmetic annex, but its pharmacological profile as a nervous-system-active substance makes it categorically unsuitable for cosmetic use. Cosmetic Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 Annex II prohibits substances with pharmacological action in cosmetic products.
Known concerns
- Pharmacological/nervous-system active substance — not permitted in cosmetics
- Cardiovascular and CNS stimulant risks
- Potential for abuse and dependence
