Question
Posted on: March 6 2013Is there a "loco" Gyno-Daktarin?
Answer
(based on the formulation study carried out by trainee pharmacist N. Bervoets, as a loco-assignment for the internship year 2005-2006). The following passages are taken from the report:
The Cetomacrogol cream is recommended by the TMF as a vehicle for among other things antimycotics and this for the treatment of all kinds of skin conditions. The Cetomacrogol cream TMF seemed less liquid than the Gyno-Daktarin and therefore it was decided to change the amounts of fat and water phase and then compare the new bases.
Properties of Cetomacrogol creams with varying amounts of VL. Paraff. and Vaseline
Finally we opt for the Cetomacrogol cream with Vloieb. Paraff. and white Vaseline Ana 10.5 g per 100g cream. This gives as global composition for the Loco Gyno-Daktarin:
R/Miconazole nitrate 1.0 G Cetomacrogol 1000 0.9 g Cetostearyl alcohol 3.6 g White Vaseline 5.25 G Liquid paraffin 5.25 g Benzoic acid 0.1 g Butylhydroxytolua dilution 1/10 2dr Aqua purificata up to 50g
