Usage

General Description

Piperazine tartrate is a chemical compound consisting of piperazine, a heterocyclic organic compound, and tartaric acid, a naturally occurring acid. It is commonly used as an anthelmintic agent to treat infections caused by parasitic worms. Piperazine works by paralyzing the worms, making it easier for the body to expel them. The tartrate salt form of piperazine is more stable than the free base form and is often used in pharmaceutical preparations. It is also used as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of organic compounds and as a corrosion inhibitor in metalworking fluids. Piperazine tartrate is generally considered safe for use when administered in appropriate doses under medical supervision, but may cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, and dizziness in some individuals.
