10[blank_start]Emollient[blank_end]:
An agent that softens the skin or soothes irritation in skin or mucous membranes.- AEmollient
11[blank_start]Protective[blank_end]:
A substance that protects injured or exposed skin surfaces from harmful or annoying stimuli allowing rejuvenation of the skin.- AProtective
12[blank_start]Occlusive[blank_end]:
Retention of water in the skin by forming a hydrophobic a barrier that prevents moisture evaporation.- AOcclusive
13[blank_start]Humectant[blank_end]:
A substance that causes water to be retained because of its hygroscopic properties.- AHumectant
14Desired properties for semisolid bases include chemical and physical [blank_start]stability[blank_end], nonreactive and [blank_start]compatibility[blank_end], free of objectionable [blank_start]odor[blank_end], nontoxic, nonsensitizing, and nonirritating, and aesthetically appealing.
- Astability
- Bcompatibility
- Codor
15According to the USP, there are 4 general classes of bases:
- [blank_start]Hydrocarbon[blank_end]
- [blank_start]Absorption[blank_end] (anhydrous, w/o)
- [blank_start]Water removable[blank_end] (o/w)
- [blank_start]Water soluble[blank_end]- AHydrocarbon
- BAbsorption
- CWater removable
- DWater soluble
16[blank_start]Anhydrous absorption bases[blank_end]:
Hydrocarbon bases that contain emulsifier(s) that form water‐in‐oil emulsions when water or an aqueous solution is added.
Absorbs the highest amount of water.- AAnhydrous absorption bases
17[blank_start]W/O emulsions[blank_end]: Contain water (amount depends on
the base). Add something with high HLP value.- AW/O emulsions
18[blank_start]Levigation[blank_end]:
The process of reducing particle size of a solid by
triturating or spatulating with a small amount of a viscous liquid or melted base in which the solid is not soluble.- ALevigation
19Levigating agents that are somewhat viscous liquids with low surface tension that don't contain water include [blank_start]glycerin[blank_end], [blank_start]propylene glycol[blank_end], and [blank_start]mineral oil[blank_end].
- Aglycerin
- Bpropylene glycol
- Cmineral oil
20General rule for choosing a levigating agent:
Choose something that is chemically similar to the base.
- [blank_start]Mineral oil[blank_end] for oily bases
- [blank_start]Glycerin[blank_end] for water-removable bases- AGlycerin
- BMineral oil
21Some active ingredients require special levigating agent:
- [blank_start]Tween80[blank_end] for Coal Tar
- [blank_start]Castor Oil[blank_end] for Balsam of Peru
- [blank_start]Glycerin[blank_end] or Fixed Oils for Ichthammol- ATween 80
- BCastor Oil
- CGlycerin
22Some ingredients that have compatibility problems:
- Tween 80 is not compatible with [blank_start]w/o emulsion[blank_end] bases
- Castor Oil is not compatible with significant amounts of [blank_start]Mineral Oil[blank_end]- Aw/o emulsion
- BMineral Oil
23Which of the following are water miscible solvents?
- AIsopropyl alcohol
- BGlycerin
- CPropylene glycol
- DPEG400
- EMineral oil
- FFixed oils
24Hydrocarbon bases are miscible with most oils but reduces the [blank_start]viscosity[blank_end].
- Aviscosity
25[blank_start]Anhydrous absorption bases[blank_end]:
- Large amounts of water, and lesser amount of alcohol (dissolves the emulsifier)
- Miscible with most oils, but reduces the viscosity- AAnhydrous absorption bases
26[blank_start]W/O emulsion[blank_end] bases:
- Variable amounts of water and alcoholic solutions
- Easily accept most oils, but viscosity may decrease- AW/O emulsion
27[blank_start]Water removable[blank_end] bases:
- Limited amounts of water or alcohol, eventually thin out to a lotion
- Some amounts of oil, larger amounts by adding polysorbate 80- AWater removable
28[blank_start]Water soluble[blank_end] bases:
- Very limited amount of water or alcohol without loss of viscosity
- Some oil, with prior levigation with glycerin or propylene glycol- AWater soluble
29[blank_start]Pulverization[blank_end] by [blank_start]intervention[blank_end]:
The material is dissolved in a solvent,
The solvent is allowed to evaporate to produce a thin film
Other ingredients are spread on top of this thin film- APulverization
- Bintervention
30[blank_start]Fusion method[blank_end]:
All or some chemicals in the ointment are combined by being melted together and cooled.- AFusion method
31For pastes, we don't use a [blank_start]levigating agent[blank_end], we use a part of the base.
- Alevigating agent
32The issue with pastes and their physical stability is that it could result in [blank_start]phase separation[blank_end]
- Aphase separation
33[blank_start]Microbial content[blank_end]
- Are not required to be sterile (except ophthalmic preparations), but there is a microbial count limit- AMicrobial content
34To minimize number of micro-organisms:
- Environmental control
- [blank_start]Adding preservatives[blank_end]
- [blank_start]GMP[blank_end]
- Finished product control- AAdding preservatives
- BGMP
35Special pharmacopeial standards:
- [blank_start]Viscosity[blank_end]
- In-vitro release
- [blank_start]Content uniformity[blank_end]- AViscosity
- BContent uniformity
36[blank_start]Minimum Fill[blank_end]:
Determination of net weight or volume- AMinimum Fill
37[blank_start]Packaging[blank_end]:
In largemouth jars or metal or plastic tubes- APackaging
38[blank_start]Storage[blank_end]:
Well closed container and cool place.
- Keeps base intact- AStorage
