Description

Dihydrotachysterol is a synthetic analog of vitamin D, specifically a hydrogenated derivative of tachysterol. This compound is critical for regulating calcium and phosphorus metabolism in the body, making it a valuable active pharmaceutical ingredient. It is primarily utilized in the pharmaceutical industry for the formulation of treatments targeting hypocalcemia and hypoparathyroidism. Our supply of Dihydrotachysterol CAS NO 67-96-9 ensures high purity and consistent quality for demanding manufacturing processes.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Active Ingredient (API): Primary use in the formulation of prescription medications for calcium regulation disorders.
• Hypoparathyroidism Treatment: Key component in therapies designed to manage low parathyroid hormone levels and associated hypocalcemia.
• Hypocalcemia Management: Used in medicinal products to elevate serum calcium levels in patients with chronic renal failure or post-thyroidectomy.
• Vitamin D Metabolic Research: Serves as a reference standard and tool in biochemical and pharmacological research on vitamin D pathways.
• Dietary Supplement Formulation: Employed in specialized nutraceutical products under strict regulatory guidance.
• Veterinary Pharmaceuticals: Applied in animal health products for calcium and bone metabolism disorders.
