Salcaprozate sodium (SNAC) is the sodium salt form of salcaprozate. It is used in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders, especially gastrointestinal disorders caused by the malabsorption of dicarbonate-phosphate compounds. SNAC can also promote the absorption of drugs in gastrointestinal epithelial cells, and effectively cope with the obstacles to the absorption of oral peptide drugs, for instance Semaglutide.
Storage Condition: Room Temprature
Physical and Chemical Properties: Bioactive Salcaprozate sodium (SNAC) is an oral absorption promoter with potential as a delivery agent for oral forms of heparin and insulin. Salcaprozate sodium can increase the lipophilicity caused by non-covalent macromolecular complexation, thereby increasing the passive transcellular penetration of small intestinal epithelial cells.
Use: Introduction 8-(2-hydroxybenzamido) sodium octanoate, SNAC for short, is a two-carbon phosphate compound absorption enhancer, used in the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases, it is especially suitable for gastrointestinal diseases caused by malabsorption of two carbon phosphate compounds.
