CMB-Chapter 17

CMB - Chapter 17 - Non-Sterile Product Compounding

QuestionAnswer
Compounding is defined as the preparation, mixing, assembling, packaging, and labeling of a drug or device.
Extemporaneous compounding is the on-demand preparation for a drug product according to a prescriber's prescription, formula, or recipe.
medications such as ? are never prepared in a non­sterile environment IVs or TPNs
1st set of records that must be kept in the compounding area Formulation record (compounding formula and procedure)
2nd set of records that must be kept in the compounding area Compounding record (what actually happened when the formulation was compounded)
3rd set of records that must be kept in the compounding area Standard operation procedures (SOP) for equipment maintenance, equipment calibration, handling and disposal of supplies, etc.
4th set of records that must be kept in the compounding area Ingredient records with certificates of purity and material safety data sheets (MSDS)
Freezer temps -20°C to -10 C
Protect from Freezing temps Store above 0°C
Cold Setting temps Any temperature not exceeding 8°C
Refrigerator Setting temps Between 2°C and 8°C (36°F to 46°F)
Controlled Room Temperature 15°C to 30°C (59 to 86°F)
Excessive Heat Any temperature above 40°C (>86°F)
compounded products must be individually prescribed for an identified patient.
? balances are preferable because they are precise Electronic or analytic
Use ? to crush tablets or grind crystals & large particles into fine powders Wedgewood mortars and pestles
Grinding powders to reduce particles size is called trituration
Always use ? for mixing liquids and semisolid dosage forms glass mortars and pestles
Graduated cylinders are available in what sizes 5 ml to 4,000 ml
? cylinders are preferred because they are more accurate Cylindrical or Graduated
Designed to be used for only a specific volume, such as 50 mL or 100 mL & can only be used to measure liquids Volumetric Flasks
Thin glass tubes recommended for the delivery of all volumes less than 5 mL & required for delivering volumes less than 1 mL pipets
The Class A balance may be used to measure weights between 120mg & 120g
The correct side for the weights is the pan on the right side.
When measuring volumes that are less than one milliliter, use a calibrated pipet, micropipet, or syringe.
When measuring an oily or viscous liquid, use a syringe, or measure by weight, rather than volume.
Never use these as measurement devices prescription bottles, non-volumetric flasks, beakers, or household teaspoons
? can be used to deliver small doses of liquid medication medicine droppers
factors that may affect the total volume measured by a dropper Calibration, Variations in pressure, Speed of dropping, & Angle at which the dropper is held
Trituration is a mixing technique in which two solid powders are mixed together using a mortar and pestle
Levigation is a mixing technique in which two substances are mixed together on an ointment slab using a spatula to reduce the particle size
Geometric dilution is a technique used to mix two powders of unequal quantities
geometric dilution process 1. Mix 50mg of drug A with about 50mg of drug B with the pestle in the mortar 2. Add and mix the other 50mg of drug B with the mortar & pestal
compounded prescriptions can be viewed as a four-step process measure, mix, mold, and package
biggest capsule size 000
smallest capsule size 5
capsule size 000 650-1450 mg; 1.37 ml
capsule size 00 400-1000 mg; 0.95 ml
capsule size 0 300-700 mg; 0.68 ml
capsule size 1 250-500 mg; 0.5 ml
capsule size 2 200-400 mg; 0.37 ml
capsule size 3 150-300 mg; 0.3 ml
capsule size 4 100-250 mg; 0.2 ml
capsule size 5 50-150 mg; 0.13 ml
Remember, the least weighable quantity (LWQ), or least amount weighable (LAW), is ? for a class A balance 120 mg
the most commonly compounded products are Solutions
oil-in-water emulsions are generally composed of 4 parts oil, 2 parts water, and 1 part emulsifying agent
water­in-oil emulsions are generally composed of 4 parts water, 2 parts oil, and 1 part emulsifying agent
the dry gum method the 4 parts oil are mixed with the 1 part emulsifier, then the 2 parts water are added
the wet gum method the 2 parts water are mixed with the 1 part emulsifier, then the 4 parts oil are added
three types of suppository bases Oleaginous, Water soluble or miscible, & Hydrophilic or emulsion bases
? is the most common method of preparing suppositories, in which suppositories are melted over hot water baths Fusion
