Question

Posted on: March 6 2013

What is the composition of bromide syrup, or where can I find the composition?

Answer

There are several bromide syrups. These are very old preparations and I fear that there are indications for these products, which were the first sedating medicines. Whether it is opportune to prescribe that is questionable.

one can choose between

  1. the calcium bromide syrup PB IV: CaBr 25 g, water 25 g and orange blossom syrup up to 1000 g
  2. the samensposed calcium bromide syrup FN IV: NH4Br and NaBr AA 800 mg, CaBr 1.6 g Chloralhydrate 400 mg, orange blossom syrup 36.4 g, Tolubalsemsyrup 60 g
  3. KBr syrup FN V: KBr 5 G and orange peel syrup 95 g
