1. Calculate the amount of Drug X grams required for this prescription. If we need 2.5% of Drug X for this Rx, 2.5g = x 100g 50g
x = 1.25gof Drug X
1.25g Answer:
2. Calculate the amount of Drug X aqueous solution in mls required for this Rx? Drug X 25% solution means there is 25g of Drug X in 100ml of liquid so 25g = 1.25g 100ml x x = 5ml
Answer:
5ml
3. Calculate the amount of Aquaphor in milligrams required for this Rx? Aquaphor should be used at a ratio of 1g of Aquaphor/1ml of liquid, so if we need 5ml of Drug X 25% solution, we will use 5g of Aquaphor to incorporate it.
5000mg Answer:
4. Calculate the amount of Drug B in grams required for this prescription? If we need Drug B 6%, 6g = 100g
x 50g
x = 3g
Answer :
3g

5. Calculate the amount of white petrolatum in grams required for this Rx? 50g total - 5g Drug X 25% aqueous soln (SG =1 so 5ml = 5g) - 5g Aquaphor - 3g Drug B = 37g of white petrolatum
Answer:
37g
6. Write the method for compounding this prescription. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.
Weigh 37g of white petrolatum. Label and set aside. Weigh 5g of Aquaphor. Label and set aside. Weigh 3g of Drug B. Label and set aside. Measure 5ml of Drug X 25% aqueous solution in a 10ml cylindrical graduate. Incorporate the 5ml of Drug X 25% aqueous solution into the 5g of Aquaphor until a uniform product is formed. Levigate the Drub B powder into a small amount of white petrolatum until a uniform product is formed. Incorporate this product into the rest of the white petrolatum using geometric dilution. Incorporate the Drug X/Aquaphor mixture via geometric dilution into the Drug B/white petrolatum product until a uniform product is formed. Pack the ointment into a clean 2 oz. ointment jar ensuring pharmaceutical elegance. Label, affix an “External Use Only” label and any other appropriate auxiliary labels to the jar, and dispense.
