Maleate drug

[Cfgalak]

Hello everyone, I wanted your help!

I have to buy a research chemical and there is a basic or maleate version, I wanted to know what the difference is between the two versions!

Thank you

Nothing?

Your question is too vague.

Assuming parent compound the same, should have the same/similar effects.

Research the name of both the basic version and the maleate version - compare and contrast via drug/pharma/chem websites.

For example

C20H24CIN3S
(prochlorperazine base) used in suppositories for nausea/vomiting etc

C20H24CIN3S•2C4H4O4
(prochlorperazine maleate) used in pills, syrups, etc for nausea/vomiting

Perhaps the basic version cannot survive oral administration due to being broken down.

Or perhaps due to this being an anti-nausea medication the suppository route eliminates the chance the patient would just vomit the oral version out making oral administration a non-viable route.

Maleate is used in a lot of drugs etc.

Changing structure may effect how it performs, in what mediums, and what it can be used for in research settings.
