Important notes :
The use of the potash alum in cutaneous application makes the indication of no remark concerning a possible toxicity in all the interrogated serious data bases. No study of cutaneous penetration is available on the man, nevertheless, the pharmacovigilance realized for more than 2000 years on the subject seems to bring a concrete contrary proof. The bound contribution has the use of the alum in daily aluminium contribution can be considered as insignificant and its transcutaneous passage also.
The contribution of the aluminium in the Alzheimer's disease is a problem which we can assimilate on no account to that of the alum use because the contribution of aluminium by this way is completely unimportant with regard to the other sources; food, respiratory.

The risks connected to the use of the alum stone in cutaneous application are unfounded fact.
