Excipients are the dormant materials used as binders for active constituents in pharmaceuticals. The active materials are generally not observed by the system of the human body and on these grounds they are combined with inactive materials referred as excipients that permit the absorption by the body system of the human beings. Further, the excipients also help in maintaining the dose and balance of therapeutic medicine. Excipients are bifurcated into gelatin, minerals, alcohol, sugar and polymers depending upon the types of chemicals. These excipients are also used to add taste and flavor to some of the pharmaceuticals. They are also referred as diluents, bulking agents and fillers.

Alcohol excipients also maintain the pH formulation balance in order to maximize anti microbial efficacy as well as retain chemical stability. Few of the excipients like glycerol and propylene glycol are widely utilized in emulsions and aqueous suspensions for external use.

Alcohol excipients are the second biggest used excipients after polymers. They contribute about one fourth of the total market share. Alcohol excipients consist of Sorbitol, Glycerin, Mannitol and propylene glycol. Usually, excipients are inactive constituents and do not have any healing effect on patient. But, alcohol excipients used as inactive binders can have side effects on some patients due to their chemical compositions. Sorbitan trioleate, propylene glycol and benzyl alcohol are few examples of excipients that result in reactions or allergies in the patients who consume it.

Propylene glycol and Sorbitol were the most utilized excipients and contributed for more than half of the world wide consumption of the alcohol excipients. But, glycerin is predicted to observe the rapid expansion and growth in future due to its growing use in different medical applications. There also exists an imbalance between the...
