About polyacrylic acid
Here is a short description about Carbopol 974P. Carbopol 974P is a highly carboxylated polymer composed of lightly cross-linked polyacrylic acid with a broad-spectrum mechanism based on acidification of pathogens. It was under development by ReProtect LLC. It is a gel that may help both block the spread of sexually transmitted diseases and reduce unwanted pregnancies. The compound, known as BufferGel, was in advanced clinical trials for its ability to prevent pregnancy, but was discontinued.

polyacrylic acid is a type of Excipients
Excipients play a crucial role in the pharmaceutical industry as an essential category of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). These chemical substances, though not intended to have therapeutic effects themselves, are vital components that assist in formulating and manufacturing drugs.
Excipients serve multiple functions in drug formulations. They provide stability, enhance drug solubility, control drug release, improve bioavailability, and facilitate drug administration. Common excipients include binders, disintegrants, lubricants, diluents, colorants, flavors, and preservatives.
Binders are responsible for holding the ingredients together and providing tablet hardness. Disintegrants enable tablets to break down into smaller particles for absorption in the body. Lubricants prevent tablet ingredients from sticking to the manufacturing equipment. Diluents, also known as fillers, increase tablet size and aid in uniformity. Colorants and flavors improve the aesthetic appeal and palatability of oral medications. Preservatives help prevent microbial growth in liquid formulations.
When formulating a drug, excipients must be carefully selected based on their compatibility with the active ingredient, manufacturing process requirements, and regulatory guidelines. Excipients undergo rigorous testing to ensure their safety, stability, and compatibility with the API. Regulatory agencies, such as the U.
S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), provide guidelines and standards for excipient quality and use.
In conclusion, excipients are indispensable components in pharmaceutical formulations. They contribute significantly to the safety, effectiveness, and overall quality of drugs. Through their varied functions, excipients help optimize drug performance, enhance patient compliance, and ensure the consistent delivery of medications.
