How to prepare your next gel: prednisolone 0.25 g erythromycin 1g Zinc undecylenate 4g Flamigel 50g

From the gel water is released after 1 day (the composition of the gel is not on the package leaflet); Zinkundecylate is difficult to process in this gel (grainy).

Answer

Comes to me as a peculiar formula! This gel is not to be prepared. Flamigel contains Carbopol, which is to begin incompatible with erythromycin. See erythromycin preparations in TMF. So there will be another excipient to be taken. Now given special properties for Flamigel are claimed, perhaps best consult the Doctor.
