`pressure {eg, 3000 to 5000 psi} and than through the second
`stage at a greatly reduced pressure {eg, 1800 psi}. This
`breaks down any clusters formed in the first step.
`For szualbscale extemporeneous preparation of ernulu
`sions, the inexpensive bond homogenizer (available from
`Med Times) is particularly useful.
`it is probal>l3; the most
`efficient emulsifying apparatus available to the prescription
`pliarmaeist. The two phases, previously mixed in a bottle,
`are hand pumped through the apparatus. Recirculation of
`the emulsion through the apparatus will improve its quality.
`A honrogenizer does not incorporate air into the final
`product. stir may ruin an emulsion because the emulsifying
`agent is adsorbed preferentially at the airfvrater interface,
`followed by an irreversible precipitation termed denatm'izo~
`tion. This is particularly prone to occur with protein ernul«
`sifying agents.
`lriomogenisation may spoil an emulsion if the concentra-
`tion of the emulsifying agent in the formulation is less than
`that required to take care of the increase in surface area
`produced by the process.
`The temperature rise during homogenization is not Very
`large. However, temperature does play an important role in
`the ornulsifieation process. An increase in temperature will
`reduce the viscosity and, in certain instances, the iuterfaeial
`tension between the oil and the water. There are, however,
`many instances, particularly in the rnanufacturing of cos-
`metic creams and ointrnents, where the ingredients will fail
`to emulsify properly if they are processed at too high a
`eniperature. Emulsions of this type are processed first at
`an elevated temperature and than homogenised at e tern»
`zserature not exceeding 40”.
`Figure 83~il shows the flow through the homogenizing
`valve, the heart of the high-pressure APV Gaulin homoge«
`iser. The product enters the valve seat at high pressure,
`ores through the region between the valve and the seat at
`igb velocity with a rapid pressure drop and then is dis-
`charged as 3 homogenized product.
`It is postulated that
`circulation and turbulence are responsible mainly for the
`omogenisatiori that takes place. Different valve assem-
`lies, two stage valve assemblies and equipment with a wide
`range of capacities are available.
`The Macro Flow-Master Korn~l:£~n.ntor' employs a number
`of different actions, each of which takes the ingredients :1
`ittle further along in the process of subdividing droplets,
`until complete homogenization results.
`'I‘l1e machine is
`equipped with a pump which carries the liquid through the
`various stages of the process.
`In the first stage. the ingredi
`exits are forced between two specially designed rotors {gears}
`which shoot the liquid in opposite directions in a small
`ollaurbsr and, in this way, are mixed thoroughly. These
`rotors also set up a swirling action in the next chamber into
`
`

`APV Gauim}.
`
`which the liquid is forced and swirled hack and forth in
`eddies and orosscurrsnts. The second stage is a pulsing or
`vibrating action at rapid frequency. The product then
`leaves this chamber, goes through a small valve opening and
`is dashed against the wall of the homogenizing chamber.
`Pressure is applied, but it is not as great as that used in other
`types of homogenizers. Pressure is controlled accurately by
`adjusting devices on the front of the machine, and tempera-
`ture is controlled by passing eoolants through the stators.
`Ultrasonic Dc-vices-~—’I‘he preparation of emulsions by
`the use of ultrasonic vibrations also is possible. An oscilla-
`tor of high frequency (100 to 500 klla) is eonnectcd to two
`electrodes between which is placed a piezoelectric quarts
`plate. The quarts plate and electrodes are immersed in on
`oil bath and, when the oscillator is operating, high-frequency
`waves flow through the fluid. Emulsifioation is accom-
`plished by simply immersing a tube containing the emulsion
`ingredients into this oil bath. Considerable research has
`been done on ultrasonic emulsification, particularly with
`regard to the mechanism of emulsion formation by this
`me-thoszl. Limited data indicate that these devices will pro-
`duce stable emulsions only with liquids of low viscosity.
`The method is not practical, hoxvever, for large--scale produc-
`tion of ernulsions.
`Special techniques and equipment in certain instances,
`will produce superior emulsions, including rapid cooling,
`reduction in particle size or ultrasonic devices. A wide se-
`lection of equipment for processing both emulsions and sus-
`pensions has been described by Eisberg.” A number of
`improvements have been made to rualie the various process
`es more effective and energy-efficient.
`General methods are available for testing the instability of
`emulsions including bulk changes, centrifugal and ultracen-
`trifugal studies, dielectric nieasurernent, surface-area mea-
`surement and accelerated-motion studies.
`I.ow~shear rheo~
`logical studies measuring visooslasticity are suggested as the
`£)ptlII1alIlflSi1l1()(.l of stability testing.
`
`Suspensions

`pm, and it is the preparations containing dispersed solids of

`this magnitude or greater that are defined pharmaceutically
`as suspensions.

`more than suspending a solid in a liquid. A knowledge of
`the behavior of particles in liquids, of suspending agents and
`of flavors and colors is required to produce a satisfactory
`suspension.
`’
`~
`Briefly, the preparation of a stable suspension depends
`upon the appropriate dispersion of the drug in the suspend-
`ing medium. To ensure that the particles are trotted by the
`dispersion medium, a surfacsaetive agent should be used,
`especially if the dispersed phase is hydrophobic. The one
`pending ag set in the aqueous medium than can be added.
`Alternatively, the dry suspending agent can be mixed thor-
`oughly with the drug particles and then triturated with the
`diluent. Other approaches to suspension preparation Em
`clude the formation of a flocotilated suspension and also a
`flooculated preparation in a suspending vehicle. Details of
`these procedures are giseii in Chapter 19.
`The most efficient method of producing fine particles is by
`dry milling prior to susperzsion. Suspension equipment
`such as colloid mills or hoinogeiiisers normally are used in
`wet-milling finished suspensions to reduee particle agglom~
`erates. These machines (Fig 88-4} usually have a stator and
`a rotor whicli effects the dispersion action. Several methods
`of producing small urliform dry particles are 1”'i}i€1“£'}}1ILIlV€‘1‘li§a-
`tion fluid-energy grinding, spray-drying and controlled pre-
`cipitation with ultrasound as described by Nash?’
`The choice of an appropriate suspending agent depencls
`upon the use of the products {external or internal), facilities
`for preparation and the duration of storage.
`Preparations made extemporaneotssly for internal use
`riiay include, as suspending agents, acacia, metllylcellolose
`or other cellulose derivatives, sodium alginate or tragacanth.

`Preparations such as those merltioned above possess cer-
`tain advantages over other dosage forms. Some drugs ere
`insoluble in all acceptable media and, therefore, must be
`administered as a solid, nonsolotion dosage form itahlet,
`capsule, etc}, or as a suspension. Because of its liquid char-
`acter, the last preparation insures some t1i1iformii:y of dosage
`but does present some problems in maintaining a consistent
`dosage regimen. Disagreeahle tastes can be covered by us-
`ing a suspension of the drug or a derivative of the drug, an
`example of the latter being chloraztnplienicol palmitate.
`Suspensions plepared from ion-exehange resins containing
`an ionic drug can he used not only to minimise the taste of
`the drug but also to produce a prolongedection product,
`since the drug is exchanged slowly for other ions within the
`gastrointestinal tract.
`Suspensions also are ohemioally more stable than solu-
`tions. This particularly is important with certain antibiot-
`ics, end the pharmaoist often is called on to prepare such a
`suspension just prior to dispensing the medication.

`
`Dosage forms of drugs are designed to make it possible to
`introduce a drug into the body of a human or animal patient.
`Since the well-being, or even the life, of the patient may be
`affected, the dosage form must be designed and prepared in
`a manner intended to promote the safety of the patient.
`Concurrently, it is essential that the dosage form compli-
`ment or enhance the therapeutic effectiveness of the drug.
`Parenteral (Gk, pom enteron = beside the intestine) is the
`route of administration of drugs by injection under or
`through one or more layers of the skin or mucous mem-
`branes. Since this route circumvents these highly efficient
`protective barriers of the human body, exceptional purity of
`the dosage i‘orm_must be achieved. The processes used in
`preparing it must embody good manufacturing practices
`that will produce and maintain the required quality of the
`product. New developments in process technology and
`quality control should be adopted as soon as their value and
`reliability have been established as a means for further im-
`proving the quality of the product.
`
`T Hist;-iii ‘
`
`One of the most significant events in the beginnings of
`parenteral therapy was the first recorded injection of drugs
`into the veins of living animals, in about 1657, by the archi-
`tect Sir Christopher Wren. From such a very crude begin-
`ning, the technique for intravenous injection and knowledge
`of the implications thereof developed slowly during the next
`century and a half.
`In 1855 Dr Alexander Wood of Edin-
`burgh described what was probably the first subcutaneous
`injection of drugs for therapeutic purposes using a true by-
`podermic syringe.
`The latter half of the 19th century‘ brought increasing
`concern for safety in the administration of parenteral solu-
`tions, largely because of the work of Robert Koch and Louis
`Pasteur. While Charles Chamberland was developing both
`hot-air and steam sterilization techniques and the first bac-
`teria-retaining filter (made of unglazed porcelain), Stanis-
`laua Limousin was developing a suitable container, the all-
`glass ampul.
`In the middle 19205 Dr Florence Seibert pro-
`vided proof that the disturbing chills and fever which often
`followed the intravenous injection of drugs was caused by
`patent products of microbial growth, pyrogens, which could
`be eliminated from water by distillation and from glassware
`by heating at elevated temperatures.
`Of the recent developments that have contributed to the
`high quality standards currently achievable in the prepara-
`tion of parenteral dosage forms, the two that have probably
`contributed most are the development of I-IEPA-filtered
`laminar airflow and the development of membrane microfil-
`tration for solutions; The former made it possible ‘to
`achieve ultraclean environmental conditions for processing
`sterile products, and the latter made itpossible to remove
`from solutions by filtration both viable and nonviable parti-
`
`cles of microbial size and smaller. However, many other
`developments in recent years have produced an impressive
`advance in the technology associated with the safe and rob;
`able preparation of parenteral dosage forms. The following
`list identifies a few of the events which have contributed to
`that development.
`1926—Pa1-enterals were accepted for inclusion in the fifth
`edition of the National Farmulary.
`l933—The practical application of freeze-drying to clinical
`materials was accomplished by a team of scientists at
`the University of Pennsylvania.
`.1938--The Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act was passed by
`Congress, establishing the Food and Drug Adminis-
`tration (FDA).
`1944--The sterilant ethylene oxide was discovered.
`1946--The Parenteral Drug Association was organized.
`1961—'I‘he concept of laminar airflow was developed by WJ
`Whitfield.
`1962—The FDA was authorized by Congress to establish
`current good manufacturing practices (CGMP) regu-
`lations.
`-
`1965—Tota1 parenteral nutrition [TPNJ was developed by
`SJ Dudrick.
`1972-The Limulus Amebocyte Lysatc test for pyrogens in
`parenteral products was developed by JF Cooper.
`
`Administration
`
`Injections may be classified in five general categories:
`1. Solutions ready for injection.
`2. Dry, soluble products ready to be combined with a solvent just
`prior to use.
`3. Suspensions ready for injection.
`4. Dry, insoluble products ready to be combined with a vehicle just
`prior to use.
`,
`5. Emulsions.
`
`These injections may be administered by such routes as
`intravenous, subcutaneous, intradermal, intramuscular, in-
`traarticular and intrathecal. The nature of the product will
`determine the particular route of administration that may
`be employed. Conversely, the desired route of administra-
`tion will place requirements on the formulation. For exam-
`ple, suspensions would not be administered directly into the
`blood stream because of the danger of insoluble particles
`blocking capillaries. Solutions to be administered subcuta-
`neously require strict attention to tonicity adjustment, oth-
`erwise irritation of the plentiful supply of nerve endings in
`this anatomical area would give-rise to pronounced pain.
`Injections intended for intraocular, intraspinal, intracister-
`nsl and intrathecal administration require the highest puri-
`ty standards because of the sensitivity of nerve tissue to
`irritant and toxic substances.
`When compared with other dosage forms, injections pos-
`sess select advantages.

`
`needed from a drug, it usually can be provided by the intra-
`venous injection of an aqueous solution. Modification of
`the formulation or another route of injection can be used to
`slow the onset and prolong the action of the drug. The
`therapeutic response of a drug is controlled more readily by
`parenteral administration since the irregularities of intesti-
`nal absorption are circumvented. Also, since the drug nor-
`mally is administered by a professionally trained person, it
`confidently may be expected that the dose was actually and
`accurately administered. Drugs can be administered paren-
`terally when they cannot be given orally because of the
`unconscious or uncooperative state of the patient, or because
`of inactivation or lack of absorption in the intestinal tract.
`Among the disadvantages of this dosage form are the re-
`quirement of asepsis at administration, the risk of tissue
`toxicity from local irritation, the real or psychological pain
`factor and the difficulty in correcting an error, should one be
`made.
`In the lattersituation, unless a direct pharmacologi-
`cal antagonist is immediately available, correction of an er-
`ror may be impossible. One other disadvantage is that daily
`or frequent administration poses difficulties, either for the
`patient to visit a professionally trained person or to learn to
`inject oneself.
`
`Parenteral Combinations
`
`Since there is a degree of discomfort for the patient with
`each injection, a physician frequently will seek to reduce this
`by combining more than one drug in one injection. This is
`encountered most commonly when therapeutic agents are
`added to large-volume solutions of electrolytes or nutrients,
`commonly called “IV additives,” during intravenous admin-
`istration. Since these are aqueous solutions, there is a high
`potential for chemical and physical interactions. See Chap-
`ter 85. The pharmacist is the professional best qualified to
`cope with these incompatibilities. However, in the past,
`these have been handled largely at the patient’s bedside by
`the nurse and physician. Only recently has it been recog-
`nized that this professional area is the proper function of a.
`pharmacist and has been so stated by the Joint Commission
`on Accreditation of Hospitals.”-3
`As pharmacists have assumed increasing responsibility in
`this area, awareness has developed gradually of the wide-
`spread occurrence of visible, as well as invisible, physical,
`chemical and therapeutic incompatibilities when certain
`drugs are combined or added to intravenous fluids.
`The development of a precipitate or a color change when
`preparations are combined is an immediate
