What can someone (adult) take for allergy to polypropelene glycol?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Avoid the chemical: Polypropylene glycol is a liquid at room temperature and although it is not a true allergy, it is an irritant to the eyes and other mucus membranes (nose, mouth) and possibly after prolonged contact with skin. Best treatment is avoidance of this product. Toxic effects can be severe.
