Customer comments

Great quality by half the price of other suppliers. We have been using riluzole from regular suppliers for many years. Now, we have tested Riluzole from Hello Bio and this has worked fantastic. Compound activity is comparable to the previous one, but the price is almost half of it. Also, the user experience working with them is easy and fast. I definitely recommend this compound. Verified customer, University of Vigo
