Water soluble Vitamin A
Water soluble vitamin A is a yellowish green, slightly turbid, fluorescent liquid of faint characteristic odour. The taste is at first faintly sweet and then bitter. Water soluble vitamin A is especially suitable for the manufacture of solutions for oral administration. This preparation contains the palmitate of vitamin A. This ester which otherwise is only fat soluble, has been rendered miscible with water and aqueous liquids by a solubilizer. The stabilizer added to the preparation moreover delays possible loss of activity due to atmospheric oxidation.
