Raw materials for animal medicine production can be divided into several main categories, including API (active pharmaceutical ingredients), excipients, auxiliary raw materials, and packaging materials.
Active pharmaceutical ingredients are the core functional substances, which can be chemically synthesized compounds, fermented products, natural extracts, biological antigens and antibodies, etc. They provide the main therapeutic or preventive effects.
Excipients do not have primary pharmacological effects, but they help shape the dosage form, stabilize the formulation and improve administration performance. Common types include carriers, diluents, binders, disintegrants, lubricants, solvents, emulsifiers, suspending agents and preservatives. Examples are corn starch, lactose, dextrin, sucrose, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, purified water and vegetable oil.
Auxiliary raw materials cover processing aids used during manufacturing, such as filter aids, pH regulators, antioxidants and flocculants. They are mostly removed or remain at low levels in finished products.
Packaging materials are in direct or indirect contact with veterinary drugs, including plastic bottles, aluminum foil, composite film, rubber stoppers and packaging bags. They protect products from light, moisture and contamination during storage.
The selection of all raw materials needs to meet relevant veterinary pharmacopoeia and quality standards, and suppliers should complete qualification review before feeding into production.
