About
Denopamine is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Its specific function may vary between products. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.
Denopamine is a dopamine derivative with positive inotropic cardiac activity used in Japan for angina treatment. Its pharmacological mode of action as a dopamine receptor agonist with cardiovascular effects means it has no legitimate cosmetic application. Substances with drug-receptor activity that affect cardiovascular function are systematically excluded from cosmetic ingredient approvals under EU Regulation 1223/2009.
Known concerns
- Dopamine receptor agonist with drug activity
