Carbocisteine AJI 92
Carbocisteine AJI 92 is a high-purity pharmaceutical-grade amino acid derivative, chemically known as S-carboxymethyl-L-cysteine. It is a white to off-white crystalline powder with a slightly sulfurous odor and is freely soluble in water. Carbocisteine functions primarily as a mucolytic agent—reducing the viscosity of mucus and promoting expectoration in respiratory tract infections. The "AJI 92" specification refers to its compliance with the purity standards established by Ajinomoto's amino acid quality benchmarks, ensuring it meets stringent pharmaceutical-grade quality control for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). It is widely used in oral syrups, tablets, and granules in both human and veterinary medicine.
Cetirizine Dihydrochloride
Cetirizine Dihydrochloride is a second-generation antihistamine widely used to relieve allergy symptoms such as hay fever, urticaria (hives), and other allergic conditions. It is the dihydrochloride salt form of cetirizine, presenting as a white to off-white crystalline powder that is odorless or nearly odorless and slightly bitter in taste. Cetirizine Dihydrochloride acts as a selective antagonist of peripheral H1 histamine receptors, preventing the effects of histamine and thereby reducing allergic symptoms without causing significant sedation. It is a commonly prescribed active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in oral tablets, syrups, and capsules.
Cetirizine Hydrochloride
Cetirizine Hydrochloride is a widely used second-generation antihistamine effective for treating allergic conditions such as allergic rhinitis, chronic urticaria, and other allergy symptoms. It is the hydrochloride salt form of cetirizine, existing as a white to off-white crystalline powder with a slightly bitter taste. Cetirizine HCl acts by selectively blocking peripheral H1 histamine receptors, thereby reducing allergic symptoms without significant sedation or central nervous system depression. It is commonly formulated into tablets, syrups, and capsules as an active pharmaceutical ingredient.
Diclofenac Sodium BP
Diclofenac Sodium is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) widely used for its potent analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic properties. It is the sodium salt form of diclofenac, providing enhanced solubility and rapid absorption. Diclofenac Sodium BP (British Pharmacopoeia standard) ensures pharmaceutical-grade purity and compliance with stringent quality standards. It is commonly formulated in oral tablets, topical gels, injections, and ophthalmic preparations.
Dicyclomine Hydrochloride
Dicyclomine Hydrochloride is an anticholinergic and antispasmodic agent used primarily to relieve smooth muscle spasms in the gastrointestinal tract. It works by blocking muscarinic receptors, thereby reducing muscle contractions and spasms, which helps alleviate symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and other functional bowel disorders. It is commonly available in oral tablets, capsules, and injectable formulations.
Metronidazole Benzoate BP
Metronidazole Benzoate BP is a benzoate ester derivative of metronidazole, used primarily as an antiprotozoal and antibacterial agent. It is a prodrug that hydrolyzes in the body to release metronidazole, making it more palatable for pediatric and geriatric oral suspensions. It complies with the British Pharmacopoeia (BP) standards for purity and efficacy.

Neomycin Sulphate BP Oral
Neomycin Sulphate BP Oral is an aminoglycoside antibiotic derived from Streptomyces fradiae. It is used primarily for treating infections caused by susceptible aerobic gram-negative and some gram-positive bacteria. The oral form is especially utilized for intestinal antisepsis, to reduce bacterial flora before gastrointestinal surgery, or to treat hepatic encephalopathy by decreasing ammonia-producing bacteria in the gut. It is available in powder or tablet form conforming to British Pharmacopoeia (BP) standards, ensuring high purity and efficacy.
