1-DOCOSANOL is white powder 1-DOCOSANOL is along-chain, saturated fatty alcohol. 1-DOCOSANOL is a22-carbon straight chain alcohol licensed for over-thecounter sales for the topical treatment of herpes labialis. It is thought to act by blocking viral fusion with the host cell, although definitive studies are lacking. The clinical relevance of the antiviral activity has been debated and the place of this medication as a treatment of herpes labialis remains to be established. n-Docosanol is a binder and an emulsion stabilizer. It is also used to increase a formulation’s viscosity. This is a mixture of fatty alcohols. behenyl alcohol may be used for any number of purposes in a cosmetic formulation, including as an emollient, a binder, an emulsion stabilizer, or to increase a product’s viscosity. It may be derived either synthetically or from plants.
