About

Carbuterol Hydrochloride [usan] is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

Carbuterol hydrochloride is a beta-2 selective adrenergic agonist with bronchodilator activity, structurally related to salbutamol. It is classified as a pharmaceutical substance and has no INCI listing or cosmetic safety assessment. Its pharmacological mode of action (cAMP-mediated smooth muscle relaxation) is unrelated to any cosmetic function.

Known concerns

  • Pharmaceutical drug — not a cosmetic ingredient
  • No cosmetic safety or toxicology data
  • Systemic pharmacological effects incompatible with topical cosmetic use
