About

Dopexamine is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

Dopexamine is a synthetic dopamine analog with activity at dopamine D1 and D2 receptors and beta-2 adrenergic receptors, used as an inotropic and vasodilator agent in critical care. Its pharmacological profile (cardiovascular activity, potential for tachyarrhythmia) is entirely incompatible with cosmetic use. No REACH registration for cosmetic applications exists, and no SCCS evaluation has been performed. Cosmetic use is not supported by any regulatory framework.

Known concerns

  • Cardiovascular pharmacological activity incompatible with cosmetics
  • No SCCS evaluation for cosmetic safety
  • No EU cosmetics regulatory authorization
  • Potential for adverse cardiac effects
