Quality Control

Our Citicoline Sodium is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and purity, residual solvent analysis, and microbiological examination to ensure it meets stringent standards for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical use. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are provided with every shipment, and we support compliance with cGMP, ICH Q7 guidelines, and relevant pharmacopoeial standards (USP/EP).

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption.
