Viscoleo
Viscoleo is a thin or low-viscosity vegetable oil.[1] It is specifically a proprietary form of fractionated coconut oil and a medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) oil.[1][2] It is prepared from the dried, solid endosperm of the fruit Cocos nucifera (coconut tree) via hydrolysis, fractionation, and purification.[3] Viscoleo is composed of the medium-chain fatty acids caprylic acid (C8) (55–60%), capric acid (C10) (40%), lauric acid (C12) (1–5%), and caproic acid (C6) (0.5%).[4][5][3][6][7] It is used as an oil vehicle for several depot antipsychotics including clopentixol decanoate, flupentixol decanoate, pipotiazine palmitate, zuclopentixol acetate, and zuclopentixol decanoate.[1][8] Injectable antipsychotics using Viscoleo as a carrier may be absorbed more rapidly and have shorter durations than preparations using sesame oil.[8][9]

MCT oil (Viscoleo, obtained from Adopan, Kastrup, Denmark) is prepared from dried, solid endosperm of the fruit of Cocos nucifera by hydrolysis, fractionation, and purification. It consists of a mixture of triglycerides containing only short- and medium-chain saturated fatty acids, mainly as octanoic and decanoic acids.
