Dear Colleagues; This week’s article contains very useful information regarding the purposes of the excipients present in the compounded preparations we prepare in our pharmacies and their contribution to the formulas they are included in. From a compounder’s perspective, the table we have published is not limited to compounded formulations alone; it is also of significant importance for understanding the role of each component in dermocosmetic products and commercial medications. Thus, knowing the reasons for including excipients in formulations will often provide us with insight into preventing incompatibilities that may arise in the formula, ensuring the stability of the formula, and formulating alternatives if patients using the medication have allergies to these excipients.
The list below has been compiled from various reference sources. This list can be expanded. It should not be considered a basic template.
Wishing you a happy holiday…
To be continued…
