Description

Metaterol Hydrochloride is a selective β-2 adrenergic receptor agonist, a key pharmaceutical intermediate and active ingredient. Its primary value lies in its bronchodilatory properties, making it essential for the development of respiratory therapeutics. This compound is critical for pharmaceutical manufacturers and research institutions focused on creating treatments for asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other bronchospastic conditions.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Active Ingredient (API): Primary use as the active component in formulated respiratory medications.
• Bronchodilator Formulations: Development of inhalers (metered-dose and dry powder), nebulizer solutions, and oral tablets for asthma and COPD management.
• Preclinical & Clinical Research: Used in pharmacological studies to investigate β-2 adrenergic receptor activity and therapeutic efficacy.
• Reference Standard: Serves as a high-purity analytical standard for quality control and method validation in pharmaceutical labs.
• Veterinary Pharmaceuticals: Potential application in veterinary medicine for treating respiratory conditions in animals.

Quality Control

Our Metaterol Hydrochloride is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, purity assay, and impurity profiling via HPLC, to ensure it meets stringent pharmaceutical-grade specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting full compliance with in-house specifications are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment and away from direct light exposure to maintain stability and potency.
