Is zinc gluconate good for children?

If a child is lacking in glucose and zinc, he or she can take it. Zinc gluconate is very effective in supplementing nutrition. After taking it for a period of time, it can help the child's growth and development without causing any adverse reactions to their growth. However, if the indexes are normal, there is no need to take it again to avoid counterproductive effects.

After oral administration, it is mainly absorbed by the small intestine and dissociated into zinc ions (Zn) and gluconic acid in the body. The serum zinc level reached its peak in 1 hour, began to decline after about 2 hours, and returned to the pre-dose level in 12 hours. Zinc is widely distributed in the liver, intestines, spleen, pancreas, heart, kidneys, lungs, central nervous system, muscles and bones.

It is mainly excreted through feces, and a small amount is excreted through urine and breast milk. Blood loss and menstruation in women are also important ways of losing zinc. After nasal administration, this drug penetrates through the nasal mucosa and nasal mucus and adheres to the nasal mucosa, which can last for about 4 hours. The nasal mucosa gradually absorbs zinc ions, which can lead to a higher local zinc ion concentration.

It is a commonly used auxiliary medicine. (Properties and stability) Zinc gluconate is white crystalline or granular powder; it is easily soluble in water, insoluble in ethanol, chloroform and ether. This preparation requires to be kept in a light-proof and airtight container.

Action category: This product is a mineral over-the-counter drug

Product categories: Zinc gluconate oral solution, zinc gluconate granules, zinc gluconate mixture, zinc gluconate syrup, zinc gluconate chewable tablets, etc.

Zinc Gluconate Soft Capsules

In addition to zinc gluconate oral solution, zinc gluconate granules, zinc gluconate mixture, zinc gluconate syrup, and zinc gluconate chewable tablets, there is now another type of zinc gluconate in capsule form, called zinc gluconate soft capsules. Mainly for newborns and young children.

Method name: Determination of zinc gluconate-neutralization titration method

Scope of application: This method uses titration to determine the content of zinc gluconate.

This method is applicable to zinc gluconate.

Principle of the method: Dissolve the sample in lukewarm water, add ammonia-ammonium chloride buffer (pH 10.0) and chrome black T indicator, and titrate with disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid titrant (0.05 mol/L) until the solution changes from purple-red to pure blue. Read the amount of disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid titrant used and calculate the content of zinc gluconate.
