The active ingredient in pantoprazole sodium for delayed-release oral suspension, a PPI, is a substituted benzimidazole, 5-(Difluoromethoxy)-2-[[(3,4-dimethoxy-2-pyridyl)methyl] sulfinyl]benzimidazole, sodium salt, sesquihydrate, a compound that inhibits gastric acid secretion. Its empirical formula is C 16 H 14 F 2 N 3 NaO 4 S. 3/2 H2O, with a molecular weight of 432.4. The structural formula is: Pantoprazole sodium sesquihydrate, USP is a white to off-white powder and is racemic. Pantoprazole has weakly basic and acidic properties. Pantoprazole sodium sesquihydrate, USP is freely soluble in water, in methanol, in dehydrated alcohol, practically insoluble in hexane and dichloromethane. The stability of the compound in aqueous solution is pH-dependent. The rate of degradation increases with decreasing pH. At ambient temperature, the degradation half-life is approximately 2.8 hours at pH 5 and approximately 220 hours at pH 7.8. Pantoprazole sodium is supplied as a for delayed-release oral suspension in unit dose packets, available in one strength 40 mg pantoprazole, (equivalent to 45.1 mg of pantoprazole sodium USP). Pantoprazole sodium for delayed-release oral suspension contains the following inactive ingredients: crospovidone, ferric oxide, hypromellose, methacrylic acid and ethyl acrylate copolymer dispersion, microcrystalline cellulose, polysorbate 80, sodium carbonate anhydrous, sodium lauryl sulfate, talc, titanium dioxide and triethyl citrate. structure
