Supposibase-F Fatty Base
Supposibase-F — Fatty Acid Suppository Base
Supposibase-F is a fatty acid suppository base suitable for both rectal and vaginal use. Manufactured from raw materials of strictly vegetable origin, it forms a waxy solid with a melting point of 33.5-37°C, allowing it to remain stable at room temperature while melting readily at body temperature. Its consistent physical properties
support reliable suppository formulation across a range of mold sizes.
- Vegetable Origin
- A waxy, hard-fat suppository base that holds its shape at room temperature
- Melts consistently between 33.5–37°C, supporting reliable release at body temperature
