Sodium Aescinate

Synonyms: Sodium aescinate, Aescin sodium salt, Escin sodium, Sodium escinate, β-Aescin sodium, Aesculus hippocastanum extract sodium salt

Sodium Aescinate is a sodium salt of escin, a mixture of triterpene saponins extracted from the seeds of Aesculus hippocastanum (horse chestnut). It is supplied as a white to off-white powder, standardized to ≥98% assay by HPLC.

Buyers source it for its anti-inflammatory and venotonic properties, using it in oral solid dosage forms, topical gels, and injectables. The sodium salt form improves water solubility compared to the free acid, making it easier to formulate into aqueous systems.

Applications & Formulation Use

Sodium Aescinate is mainly used in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products targeting chronic venous insufficiency and edema. In oral dosage forms, it appears in tablets and capsules, often in combination with other venoactive agents such as diosmin or hesperidin. Topical gels and creams leverage its anti-edema effect for localized swelling, while injectable solutions are used in some markets for acute conditions.

Formulators value its water solubility, which allows for clear aqueous solutions and simplifies the production of liquid-filled capsules and oral drops. The powder is stable under normal storage conditions and blends well with common excipients.
