Sparingly soluble drugs or undissolved in liquid preperation
Suspentions
Minimum digree of solubility and fine particles
Suspentions
Desired feutres in suspention
Effciency and stabillity Settle slowly Constant particle size Pourable Free from gritty texture
What do we change mostly for physical stability
Dispersed phase
Why we should not reduce the particle size too much
Because they form a compact cake upon settling
Suspention partcle size
1-50micro meter
Wetting agent examples
Alcohol/glycerine/pro glycol
Why do we mix aluminum hydroxide with sodium bicarbonate
Because aluminume hydroxide cause instapation but sodium bicarbonate cause diarrhea so they counter each othr
Palmitate chloramphenicol resons to use in suspentions
1-insouluble
2-flavorless
3-no need for masking agent
