Contact dermatitis propylene glycol

In concentrations greater than 10%, propylene glycol may act as an irritant in some patients those with eczematous dermatitis may be more sensitive. Allergic contact dermatitis occurs with propylene glycol, and a 4% aqueous propylene glycol solution is recommended for the purpose of patch testing. [Pg.1303]

Propylene glycol is a good base for many of the combination antibiotic drops. It acts as a dehydrating agent to fungi and enhances the effectiveness of other antifungal medications. Occasionally, a patient may develop a contact dermatitis from this agent. [Pg.2483]

Occasional adverse reactions to PG have been reported. Recently, allergic contact dermatitis was reported from a patient exposed to a propylene glycol containing ultrasonic gel (Horiguchi et ah, 2005). Similar findings have been reported from EGG electrodes (Connolly and Buckley, 2004) and also from topical preparations containing propylene glycol such as Efudix cream (Farrar et ak, 2003).

Propylene glycol is used as solvents in many formulations (e.g., oral, topical, and parenteral routes) for poorly soluble compounds such as phenobarbital, phenytoin, diazepam, and multivitamin concentrates. Because of the limited metabolic pathways in children younger than four years, number of adverse events has been described (laxative effects per os, contact dermatitis) but mainly serious systemic CNS depression.
