Is there a desiccant in the calcium tablets?


Q: Do desiccants need to be used in calcium tablets? What type of desiccant should be used?


Answer: Desiccant has the function of moisture-proof and dehumidification. If the calcium sheet has already undergone moisture-proof treatment, there is no need to add desiccant. For example, vacuum packaging, sealed storage, and so on. But most drugs still choose desiccants, usually silica gel desiccants; Some drugs also choose fiber drying tablets. These desiccants can be made into circular shapes and placed in bottle caps, which are not visible from the outside. Therefore, you may feel that no desiccants have been used, but in fact, they are already in use.


Therefore, if many drugs have already undergone moisture-proof treatment during packaging, there is no need to add desiccants. Of course, no matter how well the moisture-proof treatment is done, there will always be moisture present in the packaging air. If the product has strict quality requirements, desiccants will still be placed to prevent moisture. How to choose medicinal desiccants? Suggest Dingxing silica gel desiccant. Silica gel desiccant is insoluble in water and any solvent, non-toxic and odorless, chemically stable, and does not react with any substance except strong alkali and acid. The product quality fully complies with environmental requirements such as ROHS and REACH, and meets the Chinese chemical standard HG/T2765-2005. It does not contain harmful substances such as DMF (dimethyl fumarate). At the same time, silicone gel is also a desiccant material certified by the US FDA and can be used in direct contact with drugs and food.


Manufacturers producing medicinal desiccants need to have certain qualifications, such as obtaining a drug packaging certificate issued by the National Medical Products Administration, and also have a dust-free workshop to meet the requirements for producing medicinal desiccants. Dongguan Dingxing desiccant has a drug packaging certificate and a 100000 level dust-free workshop, which can produce pharmaceutical grade and food grade desiccants with a daily output of up to 80 million packs and stable production.
