1The mucosal route of drug administration is divided into seven membrane surfaces
characterized as [blank_start]otic[blank_end], [blank_start]ophthalmic[blank_end], [blank_start]nasal[blank_end], [blank_start]oropharyngeal[blank_end],
[blank_start]urethral[blank_end], vaginal, and rectal.- Aotic
- Bophthalmic
- Cnasal
- Doropharyngeal
- Eurethral
2Suppositories are sometimes preferred because it evades the [blank_start]first pass effect[blank_end] that happens in the liver
- Afirst pass effect
3Vaginal inserts are often compounded with [blank_start]water[blank_end]-soluble bases such as [blank_start]polyethylene glycol[blank_end] to minimize leakage
- Awater
- Bpolyethylene glycol
4Rectal suppositories are [blank_start]cylindrical[blank_end] or [blank_start]conical[blank_end]. Approximately 2 g and are about 2 to 3 cm long
- Acylindrical
- Bconical
5Vaginal inserts are [blank_start]ovoid[blank_end] or [blank_start]globular[blank_end] shaped. The weigh about [blank_start]3[blank_end] to [blank_start]5[blank_end] g
- Aovoid
- Bglobular
- C3
- D5
6Urethral inserts vary depending on whether it is for male or female.
Males - They are [blank_start]5 mm[blank_end] in diameter, [blank_start]125 mm[blank_end] in length, and [blank_start]4 g[blank_end] in weight
Females - They are [blank_start]5 mm[blank_end] in diameter, [blank_start]50 mm[blank_end] in length, and [blank_start]2 g[blank_end] in weight- A5 mm
- B5 mm
- C125 mm
- D50 mm
- E4 g
- F2 g
7The choice of a particular melting range is dictated by the influence of other components that influence the final melting range of the product. In general, suppository bases melt between [blank_start]27[blank_end] and [blank_start]45[blank_end] degrees
- A27
- B45
8Hard fat suppository bases are mixtures of [blank_start]semisynthetic triglyceride esters[blank_end] of longer-chain fatty acids.
- Asemisynthetic triglyceride esters
9[blank_start]Hydrophilic suppository[blank_end] bases are mixtures of hydrophilic [blank_start]semisolid[blank_end] materials that in combination are solid at room temperature and yet release the drug by melting, erosion, and dissolution when administered to the patient
- AHydrophilic suppository
- Bsemisolid
10[blank_start]Polymorphic[blank_end] drugs are treated as different drugs because they display different properties. An example is [blank_start]cocoa butter[blank_end] which should not be heated over [blank_start]35[blank_end] degrees.
- APolymorphic
- Bcocoa butter
- C35
11Cocoa butter has no [blank_start]surfactant[blank_end], and therefore, cannot emulsify water. Some substances such as chloral hydrate tend to lower the melting point of CB. It may be necessary to add [blank_start]beeswax[blank_end] to raise the melting point.
- Asurfactant
- Bbeeswax
12Water-soluble ionized salt forms of drugs that have [blank_start]high[blank_end] base partition coefficients should be used when possible with cocoa butter particularly when a [blank_start]systemic effect[blank_end] is desired.
- Ahigh
- Bsystemic effect
13Newer synthetic triglycerides such as [blank_start]palm kernel[blank_end] and [blank_start]coconut oils[blank_end] have [blank_start]emulsification[blank_end] properties, do not exhibit [blank_start]polymorphism[blank_end] like cocoa butter. However, they are more expensive
- Apalm kernel
- Bcoconut oils
- Cemulsification
- Dpolymorphism
14[blank_start]Glycerinated gelatin[blank_end] is a useful suppository base for vaginal inserts. Used for sustained release over a long period
- AGlycerinated gelatin
15[blank_start]Glycerin[blank_end] is categorized in the NF as a [blank_start]humectant[blank_end], plasticizer, solvent and tonicity-adjusting agent
- Ahumectant
- BGlycerin
16For suppositories in the body, there is either melting or erosion (dissolution). The erosion may be favorable for those who want [blank_start]prolonged release[blank_end]
- Aprolonged release
17PEG bases are incompatible with a large number of drugs, especially those prone to [blank_start]oxidation[blank_end]. PEG also interacts with some plastics such as [blank_start]polystyrene[blank_end] which is used in some prescription vials, which is why suppositories are wrapped in foil or in plastic bags
- Aoxidation
- Bpolystyrene
18Several surfactants closely related chemically to polyethylene glycols can be used as suppository vehicles. Examples of these are polyoxyethylene [blank_start]sorbitan fatty acid esters[blank_end] and [blank_start]polyoxyethylene stearates[blank_end]
- Asorbitan fatty acid esters
- Bpolyoxyethylene stearates
19One major advantage of substances such as polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters and polyoxyethylene stearates as suppository vehicles is their [blank_start]water dispersibility[blank_end]
- Awater dispersibility
20Cocoa butter melts quickly at body temperature and is [blank_start]immiscible[blank_end] with body fluids. This [blank_start]inhibits[blank_end] the diffusion of fat-soluble drugs to the affected sites.
- Aimmiscible
- Binhibits
21[blank_start]Polyethylene glycol[blank_end] is a suitable base for some antiseptics
- APolyethylene glycol
22Glycerinated gelatin is seldom used rectally because of its [blank_start]slow dissolution[blank_end]
- Aslow dissolution
23When selecting a suppository base, fatty bases exhibit the following:
- AMore comfortable, non-irritating
- BStinging sensation, defecating reflex
- CLess reactive, melt on storage
- DMore reactive, doesn't melt on storage
- ERectal administration
- FVaginal administration
- GPoor release of hydrophobic drugs systemically
- HMore reliable release of hydrophobic drugs systemically
- IEmollient effect locally

25[blank_start]Hand Rolling[blank_end]:
- Plastic-like mass is prepared by triturating grated cocoa butter and active ingredients in a mortar
- The mass is formed into a ball in the palm of the hands then rolled into a uniform [blank_start]cylinder[blank_end]
- The cylinder is then cut into a number of pieces which are rolled to produce a [blank_start]conical[blank_end] shape- AHand Rolling
- Bcylinder
- Cconical
26Advantages to Hand Rolling are the following:
- ADon’t require special equipments
- BAvoid necessity of heating cocoa butter
- CHave an elegant and professional appearance
- DDensity calculations and mold calibration are required
- ERequire experience and good technique
27Disadvantages of Hand Rolling are the following:
- ARequire experience and good technique
- BDon’t have elegant appearance
- CCaution must be used when heating the base and drug
- DDensity calculations and mold calibration are required
- EMixed mass of suppository base and the drug is forced into a special compression molds
28[blank_start]Fusion Molding[blank_end]:
- First, melt the suppository base
- Dispersing the drug in the melted base
- Remove from the heat and pour into a supp. mold
- After [blank_start]congealing[blank_end], the suppositories are removed from the mold
- Metal molds must be [blank_start]lubricated[blank_end]!!- AFusion Molding
- Bcongealing
- Clubricated
29[blank_start]Compression Molding[blank_end]:
Mixed mass of suppository base and the drug is forced into a special compression molds- ACompression Molding
30Density factor = Weight of [blank_start]drug[blank_end] / Weight of [blank_start]base displaced[blank_end]
- Adrug
- Bbase displaced
31When DF is unknown, you can determine is via double casting method:
- Take [blank_start]50[blank_end]-[blank_start]60[blank_end]% of base and pour all the drug you need into the mold
- And then take the rest of the base ([blank_start]nonmedicated[blank_end]) and fill it to the top
- Allow it to cool down
- Cut off excess base
- Take suppositories out, re-melt and pour again
- Calculating for excess is important because the base will [blank_start]contract[blank_end]- A60
- B50
- Cnonmedicated
- Dcontract
