Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) Database

Explore ingredient profiles, available FDA DMF and China CDE records, and documented company correspondences. Our focused collection has limited coverage: inspect each profile before subscribing.

Source-dated recordsReal public previewsPersonal data subscriptions

From public records to a clearer research starting point

Inspect the underlying evidence and reduce repeated manual sorting. Available capabilities depend on the datasets in each profile.

Organized registry records

Review available FDA DMF and China CDE entries alongside the exact ingredient identity. Free-base and salt profiles remain separate.

Search and status filters

Subscribers can search the available registry records and filter reported statuses within a product profile.

Documented company correspondences

Inspect reported company names and the evidence behind cross-source correspondences. A name correspondence does not verify ownership, manufacturing capability or supply availability.

Sources, dates and exports

Check source links and snapshot dates. Subscribers can export available research datasets to CSV with source and date information.

Inspect a real registry data sample

This preview comes from an ingredient profile in the current collection. Counts describe the imported snapshot, not a live registry or a list of verified suppliers.

Metformin Hydrochloride

Up to 3 public sample records per available registry dataset.

API database questions

Understand the current coverage and access before subscribing.

Which ingredients and datasets are currently available?

The collection currently includes Metformin and Metformin Hydrochloride. Metformin provides chemical information. Metformin Hydrochloride also includes FDA DMF and China CDE registry snapshots. The live profile list above shows the currently available collection.

Is the data updated in real time?

No. Registry data is provided as dated snapshots. Each dataset displays its source date. Review that date and the official source before making a decision.

What can I access without a subscription?

You can inspect chemical identity and properties, dataset coverage summaries, source links, snapshot dates and public samples where registry data is available.

What does a personal subscription unlock?

Monthly and annual subscriptions unlock the complete available registry records, search and status filters, documented company-name correspondences and CSV exports for one account. A subscription does not create missing datasets or add enterprise inquiry rights.

Can I export the available data?

Subscribers can export the available research datasets as CSV with source and date information from the ingredient profile. Chemical-only profiles do not imply that registry datasets or exports are available.

Does a DMF record establish FDA approval?

No. FDA states that DMFs are neither approved nor disapproved. A registry record is not standalone proof of ingredient approval, manufacturing quality or supplier qualification.

Do company-name correspondences identify verified suppliers?

No. They document reported names and the basis for a correspondence between sources. They do not establish verified ownership, current supply availability or qualification for your market.

Can I request a quotation through the current subscription?

No. The current service provides data research access. Business inquiries are not enabled in this phase.
