Description: | Meglutol is an antilipidemic agent that lowers cholesterol, triglycerides, serum beta-lipoproteins, and phospholipids, and inhibits the activity of the rate-limiting enzyme of cholesterol biosynthesis, HMG-CoA reductase. |
Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
