Frequently asked questions

What is Pantenol Labesfal used for?+

How does Dexpanthenol work?+
After application, Dexpanthenol is converted to pantothenic acid within skin cells, contributing to co‑enzyme A production.

What is the usual dose of Pantenol Labesfal?+
The dosage of Pantenol Labesfal is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the specific indication, size of the area to be treated, and patient factors. The product is typically applied as a thin layer to the affected skin as directed by the prescriber.
