CROSCARMELLOSE SODIUM

Croscarmellose sodium is an internally cross-linked polymer of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose. This polymer reduces water solubility while allowing the material to swell and absorb many times its weight in water. As a result, it provides the tablet with superior dissolution and disintegration, thereby improving the bioavailability of the active ingredients by facilitating their dissolution in digestive fluids and subsequent absorption.
