About
Phenampromide is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Its specific function may vary between products. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.
Phenampromide (CAS 129-83-9) is an opioid analgesic of the propionanilide class. It has no legitimate cosmetic application and its inclusion in any cosmetic ingredient database is anomalous. The EU Cosmetics Regulation prohibits substances with pharmacological activity that could pose systemic risk. This compound would be classified in the same category as other banned pharmaceutical excipients—no safe cosmetic use can be established without comprehensive safety data, which does not exist for this purpose.
Known concerns
- Pharmaceutical opioid compound
- No cosmetic safety assessment exists
- Banned/restricted substance
