Acetone

Acetone is used as a solvent or cosolvent in topical preparations, and as an aid in wet granulation. It has also been used when formulating tablets with water-sensitive active ingredients, or to solvate poorly water-soluble binders in a wet granulation process. Acetone has also been used in the formulation of microspheres to enhance drug release. Owing to its low boiling point, acetone has been used to extract thermolabile substances from crude drugs.
