PRESERVATIVES OF PHARMACEUTICAL RELEVANCE What are preservatives ? Preservatives are substances commonly added to food and pharmaceutical products to prolong their shelf life. The addition of preservatives to such product , especially those that have higher water content is essential to avoid alteration and degradation by microorganism during storage. PRESERVATIVES: Must be harmless. Must not impair the bioavailability of the drug or its therapeutic efficacy. Must not interfere with pharmacopeias compliance analysis of the drug.
THE PARABENS Parabens are esters of (4-hydroxybenzoic acid) that are widely used as preservatives in drugs and foodstuffs.  Their antimicrobial activity increases with chain length.
METABOLISM OF PARABENS Parabens are extensively metabolized in the human body . They are hydrolysed to 4-hydroxy bezoic acid by esterases in the liver and then conjugated with sulphate, glucoronide or glycine. They are excreted in the urine in their conjugated forms.
PARABEN HYDROLYSIS AND CONJUGATION REACTIONS
CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The active biotransformation of parabens in man is likely to prevent its accumulation and thus prevent any possible toxicity. OTHER USES OF PARABENS Parabens are also used as a preservative in the following products: Hair care products, creams, moisturizers, shaving creams, shampoos, lip sticks, etc
CONCLUSION When administering drug, we should all understand we are not only ingesting the active ingredient but alongside various other additives (preservatives, colourants etc). We should therefore seek to know the total constituent of whatever drug we administer. Thank you
