Help Center‘w/w’, often referred to as ‘weight over weight’ is a term used to describe the concentration of components in a solution.
More specifically, w/w is expressed as the mass of solute (active ingredient) dissolved in 100g of solution. For example, if a solution is described as containing 10% glucose in water by mass, it means that 10g of glucose is dissolved in 90 g of water resulting in 100g of solution.
The w/w of Abler’s omeprazole products is clearly marked on the packaging. It is important to understand that the ‘w/w’ value can differ between Abler products, despite containing the same active ingredient, and this will impact the recommended dosage rate.
