Question
Posted on: February 5 2015Do you have a formula for a suspension of Ebixa tablets?
A patient of on takes Ebixa droplets but these are lacking at present.
She cannot swallow tablets and so we need to make a suspension of these tablets.
Do you have a formula for this?
Answer
I find that memantine HCl is very well soluble in water and consequently I think it may be possible to make a solution by extracting the active ingredient from crushed tablets with 30 ml of water of +/-50 ° C. We filter out the insoluble constituents. The rest on the filter can be rinsed twice with 15 ml of warm water. In the Fitraat you dissolve 35 g sorbitol together with 150 mg ksorbate and replenishes with water up to 100 ml.
