Allen's Compounded Formulations by Loyd V. Allen
The U.S.Pharmacist Collection, 1995 to 1998
The basic formulas presented in this collection - four years of Allen's popular monthly column, "Contemporary Compounding", from the pharmacy journal "US Pharmacist" - provide for some uniformity of preparation as well as a starting point for further modification for specific patients. Adjustments can be easily made in drug concentration, flavours, preservatives, antioxidants, chelating agents, buffers and the like, to accommodate specific patient requirements and the physicochemical characteristics of specific drugs.
The volume is designed also to provide some documentation for the use of these basic formulas as presented in the contemporary literature. Included are capsules, gels, inhalation products, lozenges/troches, nasal preparations, ointments, creams, pastes, powders, solutions, sticks, suppositories and suspensions.
Supplementing his "Contemporary Compounding" columns, Allen created the following features for this collection: an introductory chapter containing information on good compounding practices from the USP/NF and the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy; tables presenting equivalent values for compounding calculations and sodium chloride equivalents; a directory of suppliers of compounding chemicals; and a glossary of terms used throughout the collection. |
