Lactitol is a hydrogenated disaccharide derived from lactose and is widely used in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food, and formulation applications. It is a sugar alcohol/polyol that provides functional properties such as low digestibility and osmotic activity.
Swapnroop Pharma manufactures and supplies Lactitol in India for pharmaceutical and other qualified industrial applications. Lactitol can be supplied according to the required grade, purity, particle characteristics, packaging requirements, and applicable specifications.
Lactitol is particularly recognized for its use in gastrointestinal and bowel-management formulations. Depending on the formulation and regulatory status, it can be used as an osmotic agent because it is poorly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and can increase the osmotic content of the intestinal lumen.
It is also used in formulation development where a sugar alcohol with specific physicochemical and functional properties is required.
