The pharmaceutical intermediates we produce are all manufactured using toxic and hazardous materials such as toluene, xylene, methanol, and ethanol

304 contains chromium, so is 304 toxic?

““All medicines have some side effects”; where do these side effects come from? Of course, it comes from the raw materials; the key is to use the right treatment to cure the illness and save lives.

Talking about toxicity without considering the dose is nonsense

It is recommended to study chemistry; the tap water you drink usually needs to be disinfected with chlorine as well.

You’re really naive; how did you manage to get to the first year at Kaichuan University?

Although these solvents are used in the process, there are specified limits for their residues in the final product as per pharmacopoeial requirements; these residues must be reduced to levels below safe thresholds, so the toxicity of the solvents themselves is practically negligible. And if you’re worried about the toxicity of these substances after they react and end up in drugs (reacting with other substances to form drugs), then there’s no need to worry. It is an obvious axiom that substances resulting from chemical reactions are not necessarily toxic. For example, when highly toxic sodium cyanide reacts with hydrogen peroxide, it produces sodium bicarbonate and ammonia; sodium bicarbonate is nothing other than baking soda, which is commonly used in home baking and can be added to food. So, basically there is no need to worry about the risk of using toxic solvents during the process. Of course, it is still necessary to choose products with guaranteed quality that meet **all standard requirements as well as GMP requirements.
