About
Reproterol Hydrochloride [usan] is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.
Reproterol hydrochloride is a selective beta-2 receptor agonist used as a bronchodilator in the treatment of asthma and obstructive airway disease. It is classified as a pharmaceutical active ingredient and is not listed in EU CosIng for cosmetic use. The ingredient is subject to drug regulatory frameworks rather than cosmetic safety assessments. Its presence in any cosmetic formulation would constitute a medicinal product violation under EU cosmetics regulation (EC 1223/2009). No cosmetic safety assessment applies, and it scores in the lowest range due to its pharmaceutical status and lack of cosmetic exposure data.
Known concerns
- Pharmaceutical drug substance - not a cosmetic ingredient
- Subject to drug regulation, not cosmetics regulation
- No cosmetic safety assessment available
