Moisture-control Desiccants for Pharmaceutical Injectables
The use of desiccants for injectables can provide several benefits, like helping in extending the shelf-life and help to reduce the amount of chemical degradation that can occur. They can also reduce the risk of contamination, as they can bind to substances that can contaminate the injectable. Additionally, using desiccants can reduce the risk of spoilage and damage due to moisture.
There are several types of desiccants that are available for use in injectables. These include silica gel, molecular sieves, clay, and activated carbon. Each of these desiccants has different properties that make them suitable for different types of injectables. It is important to select the correct desiccant for the injectables to ensure optimal performance.
Proper storage is also an important factor for injectables, for maintaining the shelf-life and stability of injectables. Injectables should be stored at the correct temperature and humidity levels to ensure maximum stability. Desiccants can help to ensure that the correct storage conditions are maintained, as they are able to absorb excess moisture from the air.
