Glycyrrhizic acid is a triterpenoid saponin extracted from the roots of Glycyrrhiza glabra and Glycyrrhiza uralensis. It is supplied as a white to off-white crystalline powder, typically standardized to ≥95% by HPLC. This grade is intended for pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmetic applications where a high-purity active is required.

Buyers select this material for its intense sweetness and its role as a natural emulsifier and flavor modifier. It is commonly used in oral care products, cough syrups, and functional beverages. With a documented safety profile and broad regulatory acceptance, it integrates smoothly into formulations targeting respiratory comfort, digestive health, or clean-label sweetening. Stock is available for immediate dispatch, and orders ship within 3-5 business days with full documentation.

Applications & Formulation Use

In pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturing, glycyrrhizic acid is a key component in cough drops, throat lozenges, and expectorant syrups. Its sweetening power—about 50 times that of sucrose—allows formulators to reduce sugar load while masking bitter actives. It also appears in chewable tablets and oral sprays for its soothing effect on mucous membranes.

In personal care, it functions as a natural surfactant and anti-inflammatory agent in toothpastes, mouthwashes, and skin creams. The food and beverage industry uses it as a flavor enhancer in confectionery, soft drinks, and herbal teas. For cosmetic chemists, it offers compatibility with both aqueous and alcoholic systems, making it easy to incorporate at typical use levels of 0.1–2%.
