Properties and application
WITEPSOL® S grades contain special additives. They are suitable for manufacturing vaginal and rectal preparations, requiring a more intensive wetting of mucosae, a greater dispersability or an enhanced absorption. They all contain an ethoxylated emulsifier which makes them suitable for use in aquaeous or ethanolic/aquaeous active ingredients (emulsion suppositories).
