Mannitol — Pharmaceutical Grade Excipient Supplier, Hyderabad
Product Overview
Mannitol (D-Mannitol) is a sugar alcohol excipient widely used as a diluent, filler, and sweetener in pharmaceutical tablet and capsule formulations. Its non-hygroscopic nature, mild sweetness, cool mouthfeel, and chemical inertness make it the preferred base for orally disintegrating tablets (ODT). USP grade is also used as an osmotic diuretic in injectable formulations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I buy Mannitol IP/USP grade in Hyderabad?
Surravi Phharma supplies Mannitol in IP, BP, EP, and USP grades from our warehouse in Hyderabad. Ready stock is available for immediate dispatch. Contact us at +91 8008002576 or WhatsApp for pricing and COA.
What is the difference between Mannitol IP and USP grade?
Both grades are highly pure (98.0–102.0% assay) but comply with different pharmacopoeias. IP (Indian Pharmacopoeia) is the standard for formulations sold in India. USP (United States Pharmacopoeia) is required for export formulations or parenteral (injectable) applications. We supply both grades.
Is Mannitol suitable for ODT (orally disintegrating tablet) formulations?
Yes. Mannitol is the preferred excipient for ODT tablets due to its non-hygroscopic nature, mild sweetness, cool mouthfeel on dissolution, and excellent compressibility. Granulated and direct-compression grades are available.
What packaging is Mannitol available in from Surravi Phharma?
Mannitol is supplied in 25 kg HDPE bags with inner polyethylene liner. Smaller lab-scale quantities are also available on request. Pan India delivery from Hyderabad.
