N-Methyl 2Pyrrolidone – NMP (China)

N-Methyl-2-Pyrrolidone (NMP) – For Veterinary Use

1. Introduction

N-Methyl-2-Pyrrolidone (NMP) is a highly polar organic solvent with excellent solubilizing power. It is widely used in technical and pharmaceutical fields and increasingly applied in veterinary drug manufacturing. Due to its ability to dissolve poorly water-soluble actives, NMP is commonly used as an excipient or solvent in veterinary injections, ear drops, and antiseptic solutions.

2. Veterinary applications
