LIPOXOL MED
LIPOXOL MED grades are widely used excipients in a variety of pharmaceutical preparations. The liquid LIPOXOL MED grades are used as solvents, solubilizers, and viscosity regulators in liquid pharmaceutical formulations. Solid grades are used as a suppository base and act as binder and plasticizer for tablets. Mixtures of liquid and solid LIPOXOL MED grades are used as ointment base, and LIPOXOL 3350 MED SP and LIPOXOL 4000 MED SP serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients in laxatives.
