Description
Glimepiride Product Overview
Glimepiride (C24H34N4O5S) is a white or almost white crystalline powder that melts at about 205–207°C. It is practically insoluble in water, whereas it dissolves in dimethylformamide, so particle size control matters for dissolution.
In addition, pharmaceutical companies use it in tablets of 1, 2, 3 and 4 mg for type 2 diabetes, and in fixed combinations with metformin. Because doses are low, content uniformity requires micronized or carefully milled material. Similarly, related antidiabetic APIs in our range include Gliclazide and Metformin Hydrochloride.
Notably, Zyntex supplies it from qualified API producers with lot-specific documentation, only to licensed pharmaceutical companies.
