Have a good week, dear colleagues…
This week, I will publish a formula known as Resorcinol paste, which has a wide range of uses including psoriasis, acne, seborrhea, and eczema, and is prescribed by physicians in Germany.
Pasta Rezorcini composita
Rp.
Acidi salicylici
Resorcini …………………………/.aa 5.0 g
Olei Ricini ……………………………….10.0 g
Pastae Zinci ………………………..ad 50.0 g
To briefly describe its preparation, first resorcinol and then salicylic acid are pulverized and mixed in a glass mortar, and olei ricini (castor oil) is added to it. The formula is completed by adding the previously prepared zinc oxide paste.
Points to be considered are; Resorcinol should not be used on large surface areas, and applying this formula to hairy skin and the scalp should also be avoided. It should be applied to the area with eczema, acne, psoriasis, and seborrhea at the thickness of the back of a knife for about 1 hour for a few days, and then this application time should be reduced to half an hour.
Here is how German pharmacists prepare the zinc oxide paste known as Pastae Zinci mollis featured in this formula:
Pasta Zinci mollis
Rp.
Zinci oxydati crudi ………………… 15.0 g
Olei Olivarum ………………………. 10.0 g
Lanolini …………………………..ad 50.0 g
This formula is used as an auxiliary formula in many preparations, and it is also used alone in dermatoses and viral infections such as herpes simplex and herpes labialis.
