Is the antioxidant butylated hydroxytoluene a depigmenting agent in man?
Abstract
Because of the allegation that butylated hydroxytoluene produced depigmentation in man, a prospective study was performed. Sixteen adult darkly pigmented males received daily occlusive applications for 60 days. Depigmentation was not observed.
