For better quality and more consumer-friendly pharmaceutical products, the processing industry often resorts to the appropriate ecxipients.
ACT supplies excipients for pharmaceutical products in consistent and certified quality in accordance with DIN-EN-ISO-9001:2015 guidelines for products from cough teas to excipients for nutritional supplements such as effervescent vitamin tablets and other OTC products (over-the-counter products without a prescription).
What is the purpose of excipients for pharmaceutical products?
The pharmaceutical industry resorts to natural and chemical products to produce its preparations. Whether tablets, capsules, teas or ointments, they all usually contain both specific active ingredients as well as additives. Additives are used for various purposes. Some have an antiseptic, cooling or mucolytic effect, to name but a few. In particular, vitamins are well known for their use in boosting the immune system or to combat deficiency symptoms. These substances are also often used to create specific compounds or to stimulate certain effects. Last but not least, they also improve the taste.
What are the APIs (active pharmaceutical ingredients) products for?
APIs are the medicinally active ingredients of a medicine. The European Pharmacopoeia contains comprehensive, binding information, for example, about the specification and test methods of the APIs. To ensure the quality, effectiveness and safety of medicines, the production and use of APIs they contain are subject to international guidelines (such as the EU GMP directives), as well as regulations and laws. In Germany the Pharmaceutical Act applies.
