Interactions
High doses of zinc may inhibit intestinal absorption of copper; zinc supplements should be taken at least 2 hours after copper supplements. /Zinc Supplements/ Thiazide diuretics have been found to increase urinary zinc excretion. /Zinc Supplements/ Concurrent consumption of large amounts of fiber, phosphorus, or phytates may reduce zinc absorption by forming non-absorbable complexes; foods containing fiber, phosphorus, or phytates should be consumed at least 2 hours after zinc supplements. /Zinc Supplements/ Some studies have found that folic acid reduces zinc absorption, but not in cases of zinc overdose; other studies have not found an inhibitory effect. /Zinc Supplements/ For more complete data on zinc gluconate (8 interactions in total), please visit the HSDB records page. |

Therapeutic Uses
Veterinary Use: Treatment of bovine dermatophyte infection (caused by Trichophyton verruciformis) with oral formulations containing 20-70% zinc gluconate, 2-10% sulfur, 0.2-1% vitamin A (10⁶ IU), 2-6% methionine, and an inert carrier such as calcium carbonate or flour. Dietary Supplements and Food Additives; Vitamin Tablets Experimental Uses: Adding zinc gluconate to suboptimal doses of Ortho-Gynol gel or Delfen cream improves the vaginal contraceptive efficacy of these products. Experimental Uses: After 24 weeks of administration of vitamin C and zinc (2 g and 60 mg daily), blood lead poisoning levels decreased from 61.6 μg/100 ml to 46.0 μg/100 ml. Post-treatment, hemoglobin levels significantly increased, and serum and whole blood copper levels decreased. For more complete data on the therapeutic uses of zinc gluconate (8 types), please visit the HSDB record page. Drug Warning The potential role of zinc in delaying the progression of age-related macular degeneration has not been established. Zinc salts have no benefit in treating acute intermittent porphyria. /Zinc Supplements/ Zinc injections containing benzyl alcohol as a preservative should not be used on newborns and premature infants. Use of benzyl alcohol in newborns has been associated with fatal toxic syndromes, including metabolic acidosis and damage to the central nervous system, respiratory system, circulatory system, and kidneys. /Zinc Supplements/ Pharmacodynamics Zinc is an essential mineral present in almost all cells of the human body. It promotes the activity of approximately 100 enzymes. Zinc deficiency is often associated with an increased risk of infection. When used to treat the common cold, zinc supplements may interfere with the lysis or adhesion of rhinoviruses and may play a role in protecting cell membranes from microbial toxins and complement damage. |

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.49 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.49 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C，1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More
Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.49 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
Calculation results
Working concentration： mg/mL；
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution： mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution concentration mg/mL). Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
