Evidence-based safety information for using Panthenol during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
We don't have specific pregnancy safety data for Panthenol. Consult your healthcare provider before use during pregnancy.
Panthenol is vitamin B5's topical form, and it's one of the most reliable barrier-repair ingredients available. It penetrates the skin and converts to pantothenic acid, enhancing hydration, accelerating wound healing, and reducing inflammation. It's boring, effective, and in more products than you'd think.
