Overview
Meradimate, before known as menthyl anthranilate, is used in a maximal concentration of 5% in different products as a UV filter. It is currently required to be named as meradimate in all FDA approved OTC products. Meradimate is approved by the FDA and Health Canada to be used as an ingredient in sunblocking products.
Indication
Meradimate is used as an active ingredient in sunscreens or as a sunblock factor in different products. It fits under the category of broad-spectrum absorbent agent. These characteristics are important to consider due to the fact that this kind of ingredients can either absorb or reflect UV radiation. It is also important to know the type of rays that cover. UVA rays are the responsible of causing sun damage and reaching deeper layers of the skin while UVB can only cause sunburn in the outer layer of the skin. When an agent is of broad spectrum, this means that this agent is capable of acting in both UVA and UVB rays.
