Chemical formula: C₈H₁₆O₈ Molecular mass: 240.085 g/mol
Carmellose sodium has no pharmacological effect. Carmellose sodium has a high viscosity resulting in an increased retention time on the eye.
Due to the high molecular weight (approx. 90,000 Daltons) carmellose sodium is unlikely to penetrate the cornea.
There are no preclinical data considered relevant to clinical safety.
