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

As a CNS stimulant of the phenethylamine class, it is regulated as a pharmaceutical substance. No EU cosmetics Annex authorization exists, and its pharmacological profile indicates it is not appropriate for cosmetic formulation.
