Description

Saccharin is a drug product that consists of saccharin N-isopropyl ester and an impurity standard. Saccharin is a synthetic sweetener that is found in the leaves of the herbaceous perennial S. dulcis, which has been used as a natural sweetener for centuries. Saccharin can be metabolized by humans to form 2-acetic acid and 4-methyl-1,2,3-thiadiazole (MTT) as a byproduct. The metabolite MTT may cause cancer in animals, but this has not been confirmed in humans. The pharmacopoeia specifies the purity of saccharin as 98% or greater. Metabolite standards are also provided for research purposes.
