Please log in for more information
BENEO’s excipient galenIQ™ is a range of water-soluble filler-binders. Derived from beet sugar it has a sweet taste and promotes a pleasant, well-balanced gustatory profile in pharmaceutical formulations. Due to these unique sensorial properties it is an optimal choice for solid and liquid oral applications, and especially those in combination with active ingredients or plant extracts which have a bitter and / or unpleasant flavour. galenIQ™ is the pharmaceutical grade of BENEO’s ISOMALT, a disaccharide alcohol derived from beet sugar. galenIQ™ complies with the isomalt monographs of the current Ph Eur, BP and USP-NF and is approved in both Japan (JP) and China (with an Import Drug License).
