PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
Description
Allantoin is an imidazolidine-2,4-dione that is 5-aminohydantoin in which a carbamoyl group is attached to the exocyclic nitrogen. It is extracted from the comfrey root and is often synthetically derived. It is added to many products to treat burns, dermatitis, wounds, acne, and impetigo. Allantoin is also added to sensitive skin moisturizers and hand sanitizers, and in topical formulations for the treatment of scars and keloids. It is carcinogenic and thus contraindicated in pregnancy and lactation, and can be fatal when orally consumed.
