semi-solid prep
of preparation :
levigation
mechanical incorporation by trituration
slab w/ spatula
reducing to impalpable powder to reduce
grittiness
drug material is levigated by a small quantity of
vehicle or miscible liquid (propylene glycol, light
mineral oil)
concentrate diluted geometrically
fusion
makes use of heat
heat 1st the substance w/ high melting point (wax
& spermaceti) using water bath before + soft &
oleaginous material
Characteristics of ointments :
easily spreadable
distillation
most satisfactory method
slowest & most expensive
ex. Strong Rose Water
cohobation process of repeatedly using the
distillate ( Orange/Rose flowers)
its stability :
not permanently stable
protect from excessive heat/light
deterioration due to volatilization
decomposition or mold growth producing cloudy
preparation & disagreeable odor
non-aqueous solution
hydroalcoholic alcohol (elixir)
oleaginous oil (oleovitamin)
ethanol ether (collodion)
aqueous solution
water vehicle
simple solution
dissolving the solute in a suitable solvent
ex. NaCl soln , Strong Iodine soln
solution by distillation
- solute = volatile oil
solution by extraction
extractives
vegetable or animal origin
maceration
submerging the solute
no temperature
percolation
submerging solute using percolator
digestion
