Pharmaceutical-Grade Fluoxetine DR Pellets for Delayed-Release Oral Formulations
Fluoxetine DR Pellets are multiparticulate pharmaceutical formulations developed for delayed-release oral dosage applications. The active ingredient is Fluoxetine Hydrochloride, with CAS Number 56296-78-7, molecular formula C₁₇H₁₉ClF₃NO, and molecular weight 345.8 g/mol. PubChem identifies Fluoxetine Hydrochloride as the hydrochloride salt of Fluoxetine.
The SDP pellet product portfolio lists Fluoxetine DR Pellets at 20% strength, providing a defined active-loading option for pharmaceutical formulation development.
The delayed-release pellet format uses a multiparticulate system designed to modify the release of the active ingredient according to the intended formulation profile. Functional coating systems may be incorporated where required to achieve the desired release characteristics.
Fluoxetine Hydrochloride has the molecular formula C₁₇H₁₉ClF₃NO and molecular weight 345.8 g/mol. The CAS Number for Fluoxetine Hydrochloride is 56296-78-7.
Fluoxetine contains a stereogenic center, and the hydrochloride salt exists in stereochemically defined forms. PubChem separately identifies the S- and R-enantiomeric hydrochlorides, so the raw-material specification should clearly identify the applicable material.
For the finished pellet product, the 20% value represents active ingredient loading and should not be confused with the purity assay of Fluoxetine Hydrochloride API.
