Simple Syrup NF

Classical sucrose oral vehicle

Simple Syrup NF is a classical oral vehicle for water-soluble medications, especially those with a bitter or unpleasantly sour taste.

Taste masking allows accurate oral dosing for the infirmed, the very young and the very old alike. The syrup contains no added flavor — simply an aqueous sucrose vehicle — giving the pharmacist full versatility to flavor preparations as needed.
