Dextrose Monohydrate
Dextrose monohydrate provides key excipient and nutrient benefits as a filler/binder and as a carbohydrate source. Glucose or dextrose is the monomer of natural starch polymer. This monomer is also the natural physiological sugar in the human body. In its crystalline form this natural sugar has long been used both as a filler for oral dosage forms and as a sweetener. Roquette has a range of dextrose products wide enough to meet any of manufacturers' different requirements. Our offering includes various particle sizes and a specific grade for compression.
