Potassium guaiacolsulfonate hemihydrate

Description:
Potassium guaiacolsulfonate hemihydrate is a chemical compound characterized by its use as an expectorant in various pharmaceutical formulations. It is a potassium salt derived from guaiacol, which is known for its mucolytic properties, aiding in the thinning and expulsion of mucus from the respiratory tract. The hemihydrate form indicates that the compound contains half a molecule of water for each molecule of the salt, which can influence its solubility and stability. Typically, it appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is soluble in water, making it suitable for oral and injectable formulations. The compound is generally regarded as safe when used as directed, but like all medications, it may have potential side effects or interactions with other drugs. Its efficacy in treating respiratory conditions is attributed to its ability to enhance mucus clearance, thereby improving respiratory function. As with any pharmaceutical ingredient, proper handling and storage conditions are essential to maintain its integrity and effectiveness.
