Description | Docosanol, also known as abreva or behenic alcohol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty alcohols. These are aliphatic alcohols consisting of a chain of a least six carbon atoms. Thus, docosanol is considered to be a fatty alcohol lipid molecule. A long-chain primary fatty alcohol that is docosane substituted by a hydroxy group at position 1. Docosanol is a drug which is used for the topical treatment of recurrent oral-facial herpes simplex episodes (cold sores or fever blisters). Docosanol is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Outside of the human body, Docosanol has been detected, but not quantified in, ginkgo nuts and potato. Behenyl Alcohol was first documented in 2002 (PMID: 12367721). This could make docosanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. |
