Solvent Selection

Meaning

Solvent Selection is the deliberate and precise choice of an appropriate liquid medium for dissolving or suspending active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) during the compounding or manufacturing process of hormonal and peptide preparations. In the context of hormonal health, this is a critical step that dictates the compound’s stability, shelf-life, solubility, and ultimately, its bioavailability and safety upon administration. An incorrect solvent choice can compromise the therapeutic efficacy of the final product.
