Sulfobutyl ether β-cyclodextrin sodium (also called Betadex sulfobutyl ether sodium) is a chemically modified β-cyclodextrin used as drug delivery system. It is applied to injectable drugs to improve the solubility of difficult soluble drugs, can make the drug injections in the rapid transfer and reach the required dosage, reduce irritation to the parts injected, improve the stability of the drug solution and to improve the safety of medication.
