Mannitol is a type of sugar alcohol used as a sweetener and medication.[5][6] It is used as a low calorie sweetener as it is poorly absorbed by the intestines.[5] As a medication, it is used to decrease pressure in the eyes, as in glaucoma, and to lower increased intracranial pressure.[7][8][6] Medically, it is given by injection or inhalation.[9][10] Effects typically begin within 15 minutes and last up to 8 hours.[9]

Common side effects from medical use include electrolyte problems and dehydration.[9] Other serious side effects may include worsening heart failure and kidney problems.[9][6] It is unclear if use is safe in pregnancy.[9] Mannitol is in the osmotic diuretic family of medications and works by pulling fluid from the brain and eyes.[9]

The discovery of mannitol is attributed to Joseph Louis Proust in 1806.[11] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[12] It was originally made from the flowering ash and called manna due to its supposed resemblance to the Biblical food.[13][14] Mannitol is on the World Anti-Doping Agency's banned drug list due to concerns that it may mask other drugs.[15]
