Pharmacological properties 

Dexpanthenol is a derivative of pantothenic acid. In the body it is metabolized to pantothenic acid, which is an integral part of coenzyme A and is involved in the processes of acetylation, carbohydrate and fat metabolism, in the synthesis of acetylcholine, glucocorticosteroids, porphyrins; stimulates skin regeneration, normalizes cellular metabolism, accelerates mitosis and increases the strength of collagen fibers. It has a regenerating, metabolic and weak anti-inflammatory effect. An increase in the demand for pantothenic acid is observed when the skin or tissues are damaged, and its deficiency can be compensated for by the local use of D-Panthenol. Optimum molecular weight, hydrophilicity and low polarity make it possible to penetrate into all layers of the skin.
