Walter Repp was the first to synthesize PVP, an intriguing acetylen derivative, in 1939. PVP was used in medical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial production as a blood plasma substitute. Despite being widely considered safe, adverse reactions have been reported, particularly when used subcutaneously or under the skin, and when in contact with mucous membranes or internal blood fluids.
