Medicine Description dex-panol 5GM/100ML
Dex-Panol 5GM/100ML Spray is a medication that primarily functions as a skin protectant and moisturizer. Its active ingredient, dexpanthenol, is a provitamin of pantothenic acid, which is vital for various metabolic processes in the body. Once absorbed, dexpanthenol is converted into pantothenic acid, facilitating the synthesis of coenzyme A, a critical component in the metabolic pathways of fatty acids. This action promotes cellular proliferation and aids in the healing process of damaged skin by enhancing tissue repair and regeneration. Additionally, dexpanthenol helps to maintain skin hydration by attracting moisture to the skin, thus improving its barrier function.
