| Abstract | IPA COPYRIGHT: ASHP A male hairdressing formulation produced eye irritancy during test marketing despite negative toxicity screening tests in rabbits and squirrel monkeys. The adverse effects were detected during a 10-month test market period, during which 20 complaints of eye irritation were received. This represented 1 complaint for every 8,500 hair preparations sold. Irritation was observed after exposure to rain or snow. The dressing, a solid transparent microemulsion, produced reversible visual blurring, corneal pitting, itching and pain. Similar responses were noted in human volunteers when an aqueous solution of the ethoxylated oleyl alcohol constituent of the dressing was instilled in the eye. |
