A member asked:
Is 100% polyurethane foam pillow safe to sleep on with just the pillow case on it? the foam came inside of a ziplock cover initially, but removed it.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unless: you are sensitive to polyurethane or it's chemical constituents it is safe...If you are concerned purchase a pillow "slips" (with zipper closure) available at any BED&BATH or similar store (NOT A RECOMMENDATION FOR SPECIFIC STORE/BRAND) Hope this is helpful Dr Z
