Clomiphene Citrate Tablets

Description

Clomiphene citrate tablets at 50 mg per scored tablet, offered in 10, 30 and 90 count bottles. The compound is a triphenylethylene selective oestrogen receptor modulator supplied as a mixture of its enclomiphene and zuclomiphene isomers, an approved generic medicine in the United States, and not a controlled substance. Research use only, not for human consumption, adults 21 and over, with purchase restrictions by state.

Specification

Three counts of the same tablet. Content per unit does not change between them, so the only thing that changes is the total and the price per milligram printed under each option.

We file clomiphene citrate tablets under the PCT listings. The parent shelf is anabolics.

United States regulatory status

Clomiphene citrate is approved in the United States, supplied by more than one generic manufacturer, and is not a controlled substance. The PCT shelf is consistently in that position and we say so rather than letting the parent category imply a scheduling status that does not exist for clomiphene citrate tablets. Records are at the FDA’s approvals and databases and the schedules at the DEA.

The isomer question behind clomiphene citrate tablets

Pharmaceutical clomiphene is a mixture of two geometric isomers in roughly a three to two ratio, which makes it unusual among the compounds on this site: most are single substances and this one is a defined blend. HPLC resolves the two, so a certificate that shows a single peak at full area is reporting on the wrong thing.

The citrate salt has a molecular mass near 598.1 and the free base near 406, so the salt carries about a third of the weight. United States labelling for this product states the strength as clomiphene citrate, and keeping that basis straight is half of reading an assay for clomiphene citrate tablets correctly.

Deriving milligrams and price per milligram

Multiply 50 mg by the count: 500 mg, 1,500 mg or 4,500 mg. Each option is priced on its own and carries its own per-milligram figure, so the saving on the larger bottle is arithmetic rather than a claim. High content per unit means this listing prices well per milligram compared with the 1 mg and 0.5 mg items nearby.

Price per milligram beats the price on the bottle and how to read a certificate of analysis cover the two figures we publish for every lot.

Reading the lot certificate

Start at the header, not the numbers. The laboratory name, the method reference, the date the sample was received and the lot it came from are what make the rest of the page mean anything. Then the HPLC purity figure for clomiphene citrate tablets, as a percentage of total peak area. Then the mass spectrometry identity confirmation, which is the measured mass set against the expected molecular mass. Then residual solvents in parts per million. The laboratory issuing it has no ownership connection to this company, which is the part that cannot be reconstructed from the figures themselves.

Check the lab before you check the numbers explains why we put the header first, and how to read a certificate of analysis covers the fields in order.

Specifications only

Everything above is a property of clomiphene citrate tablets or of its paperwork. There is no section on use, because there is no version of a use section for this family that we are willing to write, and requests for one are declined rather than quietly ignored.

What we will answer about clomiphene citrate tablets: what the assay returned, what the lot number refers to, what the carrier and preservative are, whether we can ship to a given state. Why research use only is not a legal strategy covers the regulatory background, and the FDA’s drug information pages carry the agency’s own statements.

Packaging notes

We ship clomiphene citrate tablets in the original sealed container with the lot number legible. We do not decant, relabel or combine lots, because a reference material whose lot cannot be named is no longer a reference material. The listing for this item states the storage conditions and the stability window we are willing to stand behind. Nothing is supplied in unmarked packaging, and we will not omit the compound name from a label or a customs declaration.

We sell this item as a laboratory reference material, for research use only and not for human consumption. Adults 21 and over, with purchase restrictions by state: the product page lists the exclusions and the cart applies them. This is not a drug, a dietary supplement or a food, and it is not approved for administration to a person or an animal. Every lot certificate is published on the lab results page.
