Description
Xylometazoline Hydrochloride Product Overview
Xylometazoline hydrochloride (C16H24N2·HCl) is a white crystalline powder that is soluble in water and alcohol. It is an alpha-adrenergic agonist of the imidazoline class.
Pharmaceutical companies use it in nasal sprays and drops, typically at 0.05% for children and 0.1% for adults, and in combinations with moisturizing agents or other APIs. Because only small amounts are used per bottle, it is a low-volume but widely sold API. Related decongestant and cold APIs in our range include Phenylephrine Hydrochloride and Chlorpheniramine maleate.
Zyntex supplies xylometazoline hydrochloride from qualified API producers, only to licensed pharmaceutical companies.
