Allantoin is a synthetic free-flowing hygroscopic powder (naturally occurring in comfrey) widely used in cosmetic, dermatological and pharmaceutical formulations for its soothing and anti-irritating properties. Allantoin stimulates healthy, normal tissue formation even at low concentrations. Allantoin has been classified by the FDA as an Over-The-Counter (OTC) Category I (safe and effective) active ingredient skin protectant. It is FDA approved for this use at 0.5% to 2.0% in formulations. Allantoin is non-toxic, non-irritating, and non-allergenic. If you include it in your formulations and on your ingredient labels, but make no drug claims for it, it remains a cosmetic ingredient and need not be declared as an "active ingredient."
Please note, our Allantoin meets USP specifications, but it is considered a cosmetic grade material once we repackage it.
Recommended Use Rate: 0.5 - 2.0%
Country of Origin: China
Appearance: Powder
