They are considered to be a marriage between cosmetics and drugs and are defined as preparations applied on the body that may modify the physiological functions of the skin. However, as more cosmeceuticals are being launched in the market and more types of drugs are incorporated into the formulation, the composition of cosmeceuticals is becoming more complex. \u003ci\u003eHandbook of Cosmeceutical Excipients and their Safeties\u003c\/i\u003e summarises the current evidence relating to cosmeceuticals’ side effects and highlights the important information that practitioners and consumers need to know, as well as ways to avoid the adverse effects of the excipients. \u003ci\u003eHandbook of Cosmeceutical Excipients and their Safeties \u003c\/i\u003eincludes chapters covering topics such as the history of cosmeceuticals and the laws that regulate them, skin permeation, carcinogenicity as a systemic adverse effect and dermatitis as a topical adverse effect. It concludes with an appendix that gives brief information on the potency and permeability of common ingredients in cosmeceuticals. The appendix aims to highlight the maximum allowable quantity of each ingredient to ensure product safety for consumers. The appendix was prepared by compiling the ingredients of 257 products containing more than 500 compounds, collected from a hospital pharmacy in Singapore.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e1: History of cosmeceutics2: Regulation of cosmetics3: Skin permeation of cosmetics4: Systemic effect of cosmeceutics – cancer5: Local effect of cosmeceutics – allergic contact dermatitis6: Essential monographs\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Pharmacology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Pharmacology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Pharmacology%20%5BMMG%5D%22\"\u003eMMG\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Woodhead Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46649073729816,"sku":"9781907568534","price":106.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781907568534_cfd4f8aa-6536-4968-b2f9-eafb92bdd88a.jpg?v=1696598755","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/handbook-of-cosmeceutical-excipients-and-their-safeties-hardback-9781907568534","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
