LACRYL PF EYE GEL 5 GM

LACRYL PF EYE GEL 5 GM forms a protective barrier, retaining moisture and improving viscosity. It enhances solubility, stabilizes emulsions, and aids in controlled-release formulations.

LACRYL PF EYE GEL 5 GM (HPMC) is a hydrophilic polymer that works by hydrating and swelling in contact with water. It forms a gel-like structure, creating a protective barrier on the surface it is applied to. This barrier helps retain moisture, providing lubrication and reducing friction. In pharmaceuticals, HPMC acts as a film-former, improving the dissolution and bioavailability of drugs. It also enhances drug solubility, aiding in their absorption and distribution within the body. In ophthalmic preparations, HPMC increases the viscosity of eye drops, allowing them to stay on the surface of the eye for a longer duration, providing sustained release of active ingredients. HPMC is also used as a stabilizer and emulsifier in various formulations, preventing phase separation and improving the stability and appearance of products. Additionally, HPMC acts as a binder and disintegrant in tablets, facilitating their formation and disintegration. Its ability to control the release of drugs makes it suitable for sustained-release and extended-release formulations. The versatile properties of HPMC make it an essential ingredient in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food, and construction.
