Description
Allopurinol Product Overview
Allopurinol (C5H4N4O) is a structural analogue of the natural purine hypoxanthine. It is a white or almost white crystalline powder that is very slightly soluble in water and practically insoluble in ethanol. It is described in the USP, EP and BP.
Pharmaceutical companies use allopurinol to formulate tablets in the xanthine oxidase inhibitor class, used in medicines for conditions related to high uric acid levels. As a high-volume generic API, it is available from several qualified producers worldwide, and consistent particle size and flow properties are important for tablet production.
Zyntex supplies it from qualified API producers, with lot-specific documentation available before ordering, only to companies licensed for pharmaceutical use. For other purine-analogue APIs, see Azathioprine.
