Zinc lactate is the zinc salt of lactic acid (CAS 16039-53-5; C6H10O6Zn, MW 243.52), supplied anhydrous or as the dihydrate. It is a water-soluble organic-acid salt carrying about 27% elemental zinc on the anhydrous basis, around 23% as the dihydrate, a mid-range load comparable to the picolinate and above the gluconate. Its clean solubility suits lozenges, and despite the name the lactic acid is fermentation-derived rather than milk-derived, so it carries no dairy allergen. It is a white powder manufactured into tablets, capsules, powders and liquids.
