Better suspensions, top to bottom.

SuspendIt is an aqueous suspending base, specifically designed for oral suspension formulations. With its innovative, all-in-one technology, SuspendIt simplifies the compounding process and helps support consistent dosing.

Key Benefits & Features

  • All-in-One Solution: A complete oral suspension vehicle that streamlines your compounding process.
  • Patented Polymer Complex: Enables rapid redispersion of APIs with gentle agitation, reducing sedimentation and ensuring consistent dosing throughout the BUD.
  • Backed by Stability Data: Supported by USP-compliant stability data using stability-indicating assays and USP 51 testing, offering greater flexibility and potentially longer BUDs.
  • Sweetened with Monk Fruit: A neutral, sugar-free sweetener that improves palatability without overpowering flavors — promoting better patient compliance.
  • Formulated without Common Allergens: Free of gluten, alcohol, parabens and dyes, making it suitable for a wide range of patients with sensitivity concerns.

Watch as PCCA Senior Formulation Pharmacist Fabiana Banov, RPh, MS, provides an overview of PCCA SuspendIt and demonstrates how its patented thixotropic flow ensures rapid redispersion and minimal sedimentation.

No corn product was intentionally added during the production process. However, the source of citric acid is corn derived; therefore, the presence of corn protein may be contained at low levels. SuspendIt is formulated without GMOs.

Sodium Benzoate (0.25%) and Potassium Sorbate (0.25%)

190+ formulas feature SuspendIt. All formulas are developed by a team of scientists and pharmacists in PCCA’s Formulations Lab. Documentation is made of all procedures, calculations and key findings. Formulations are then observed over time based on USP beyond-use dates for changes prior to the triple-check review process and addition to the formulation database.

70+ formulas have extended BUDs, including many with bracketed strengths.

Yes, PCCA’s FormulaPlus™ program evaluates chemical potency of a formula using stability-indicating assays throughout the BUD, at refrigerated and room temperatures, plus USP 51 antimicrobial effectiveness testing as required by USP.
