TERPIN HYDRATE IP/USP/BP/EP

Terpin Hydrate IP/USP/BP/EP is a pharmaceutical-grade monohydrate terpene compound used as an expectorant in the treatment of respiratory ailments. Produced from turpentine or other essential oils like thyme, it is standardized to meet the stringent quality specifications of the Indian Pharmacopoeia (IP), USP, British Pharmacopoeia (BP), and European Pharmacopoeia (EP).

Pharmaceutically, Terpin Hydrate is included in compounded medications for bronchitis, pneumonia, and other respiratory tract infections. It works by increasing mucus secretion and decreasing its viscosity—making coughs more productive and clearing congested airways. Typically, it is combined with mild antitussives like codeine in elixirs or syrups and dispensed by prescription for acute and chronic bronchial conditions.

Terpin Hydrate IP/USP/BP/EP is valued for its consistency, stability, and proven efficacy in pharmacy-compounded respiratory treatments. It remains relevant in regulatory-compliant therapeutic use, especially where customized formulations are preferred over mass-market alternatives. Each batch is tested against relevant pharmacopoeial standards, ensuring identity, purity, assay, solubility, and absence of harmful residues.
