Regulatory evidence across markets

None of the 13 markets tracked here holds an imported rule under the name DIMETHYL MALEATE.

That is a statement about this inventory, not about the law: no imported rule is not evidence that a substance is permitted. A rule may exist under a different name, under a CAS or EC number this glossary entry does not carry, or in a dataset not yet imported.

Dimethyl Fumarate

Dimethyl fumarate is an enoate ester resulting from the formal condensation of both carboxy groups of fumaric acid with methanol. Used for treatment of adults with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis. It has a role as an antipsoriatic and an immunomodulator. It is a methyl ester, a diester and an enoate ester. It is functionally related to a methanol and a fumaric acid. — ChEBI
