Disperse Systems
The particles are usually solid materials that are insoluble to the liquid
medium
Disperse Systems
Disperse Systems
Emulsions contain oils which has generally have less density than
water, therefore they tend to rise up in the preparation.
SUSPENSIONS
SUSPENSIONS
oral suspension
Features Desired in a
Pharmaceutical Suspension
Stokes law.
Many variables:
they are high speed attrition or impact mills that are efficient in reducing powders to the desired
size
Particles are swept in a violent turbulence by sonic and supersonic velocities of airstreams and
collide to each other resulting in fragmentation.
Eg. Progesterone
Because the rate of sedimentation is reduced thus providing slow and uniform
rate of settling.
Symmetrical barrel shape are more stable suspensions than needle shaped
particles
The loose structure permits aggregates to distribute readily with small amount
of agitation
Dispersion Medium
Rapid Settling
They thicken the suspension medium and help suspend the suspensiod.
Dispersion Medium
Must have appropriate tests to show that they do not interfere with the
drugs availability.
Dispersion Medium
Preparation of Suspensions
Sometimes, the dispersed phase has the affinity for the vehicle and is
readily wetted by it.
Other drugs, are not penetrated by the vehicle has the tendency to
float or clump together, if that is the case, the powder must be wetted
to make it more penetrable to the dispersion medium.
They displace the air in the crevices of the particles dispersing the particle and
finally allowing it to be penetrated.
In large scale preparation, wetting agents are mixed with the particles
by an apparatus such as the colloid mill.
Small Scale Preparation they are mixed with mortar and pestle.
Preparation of Suspensions
Pennkinnetic System uses the combination of ion exchange resin complex and
particle coating
The system complexes ionic drugs with ion exchange resins resulting in a drug-resin
complex particles and later coated with ethylcellulose.
Liquid Formulations of the coated particles, the drug remains absorbed onto the resin but
slowly released by ion exchange process in the GIT.
Extemporaneous Compounding of
Prescriptions
It is known that liquid form has higher decomposition rate than solid
forms.
Extemporaneous Compounding of
Prescriptions
Extemporaneous Compounding of
Prescriptions
Same for patients taking depressants for CNS and make the patient ill.
Benzyl Alcohol cause gasping syndrome and deterioration of multiple organs and
death
To counter GERD.
Sodium Bicarbonate
Antibiotic substances :
They are also packed with calibrated droppers for infants to assist
delivery
Rectal Suspensions
Mesalamine Suspension
Colocort
Cholestyramine hyperlipidemia
Barium sulfate Used orally or rectally for diagnostic visualization of the GIT
It is practically insoluble in water and safe in large doses because intestines doesnt
absorb it.
Pharmacist must be careful with other forms of barium, such as its sulfide, and sulfite
because they are soluble and poisonous.
When used orally dx for hypo pharynx, esophagus stomach, small intestine and
colon.
When used rectally, it allows visualization of features of the rectum and colon
Commercially, for diagnostic use, is available as bulk powder with suspending agents
to be reconstituted to an oral suspension or enema.
Enema contains units that are ready-to-use and disposable bags are also available.
