Use
Canthaxanthin, a naturally-occurring carotenoid with a deep redorange
colour, is widely used as a food colouring agent. Since the mid-1970s it has
been included in oral 'artificial suntan' preparations. It is also available in
preparations used in the treatment of certain photodermatoses. By the mid-1980s
its use in such preparations had been associated with the accumulation of
crystalline deposits in the retina. Reported functional changes relating to dark
adaptation have been of marginal clinical significance and largely reversible.
Nevertheless, this has led to the withdrawal of artificial suntan preparations
containing canthaxanthin by several regulatory authorities. Preparations for
treatment of photodermatoses remain available in some but not all of these
countries.
