Omega-3-acid ethyl esters are used in addition to changes in diet to reduce triglyceride levels in adults with severe (≥ 500 mg/dL) hypertriglyceridemia. [3] In the European Union and other major markets outside the US, omega-3-acid ethyl esters are indicated for hypertriglyceridemia by itself, or in combination with a statin for people with mixed dyslipidemia.
An ester of a carboxylic acid.R stands for any group (typically hydrogen or organyl) and R ′ stands for any organyl group.. In chemistry, an ester is a compound derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which the hydrogen atom (H) of at least one acidic hydroxyl group (−OH) of that acid is replaced by an organyl group (R ′).

Japan was the first country that allowed the use of sucrose esters as food additives. The Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare approved sucrose esters in 1959. Then, in 1969, FAO/WHO approved the use of sucrose esters. [18] Sucrose esters were approved and registered by European Food Safety Authority or EFSA under the E number of E 473. [19]

The benzoyl group is often abbreviated "Bz" (not to be confused with "Bn," which is used for benzyl), thus benzoic acid is also denoted as BzOH, since the benzoyl group has the formula – C 6 H 5 CO. It is the simplest aromatic carboxylic acid. The name is derived from gum benzoin, which was for a long time its only source.
Parabens are chemical compounds that are commonly used as preservatives in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products. Chemically, they are a series of parahydroxybenzoates or esters of parahydroxybenzoic acid (also known as 4-hydroxybenzoic acid). Research is being conducted to evaluate the potential health implications of paraben usage.
This is a list of estrogen esters, or ester prodrugs of estrogens. It includes esters, as well as ethers , of steroidal estrogens like estradiol , estrone , and estriol and of nonsteroidal estrogens like the stilbestrols diethylstilbestrol and hexestrol .
"Etabonate" is an international nonproprietary name (INN) and United States Adopted Name (USAN) for pharmaceutical substances and is the name almost universally used in pharmacology. [1] some important drugs featuring that group are Loteprednol etabonate, a corticosteroid; Remogliflozin etabonate, an anti-diabetic drug
