SODIUM GLYCOLATE, a sodium salt of carboxymethyl ether, is used as a pharmaceutical grade dissolution excipient for solid dosage forms. It absorbs water rapidly, resulting in swelling which leads to the rapid disintegration of tablets and capsules. Without a disintegrant, these may not dissolve appropriately and may effect the amount of active ingredient absorbed, thereby decreasing effectiveness.
