light resistant container
protect the product from the effects of light
well-closed container
protection from external particles
tight container
protection from contamination by extraneous liquids, solids, or vapors, loss from the article, and from efflorescence, deliquesence, or evaporation
hermetic container
impervious to air or any other gas under normal conditions
very soluble
1 g in less than 1 ml
freely soluble
1 g in less than 10 ml
soluble
1 g in less than 30 ml
sparingly soluble
1 g in less than 100 ml
slightly soluble
1 g in less than 1000 ml
very slightly soluble
1 g in less than 10,000 ml
practically insoluble, or insoluble
1 g in more than 10,000 ml
stability
the extent to which a preparation retains, within specified limits, and throughout its period of storage and use, the same properties and characteristics that it possessed at the time of compounding
types of stability
chemical, physical, microbiological, therapeutic, toxilogical
chemical stability
each active ingredient retains its chemical integrity and labeled potency, within the specified limits
physical
the original physical properties, including appearance, palatability, uniformity, dissolution, and suspendability, are retained
microbiological
sterility or resistance to microbial growth is retained according to the specified requirements. Antimicrobial agents that are present retain effectiveness within the specified limits
therapeutic
the therapeutic effect remains unchanged
toxicological
no significant increase in toxicity occurs
main factors that affect stability
temperature, light, humidity, oxygen, carbon dioxide
beyond-use dating
the date after which a compounded preparation is not to be used and is determined from the date the preparation is compounded
BUD: nonaqueous liquid and solid formulations (2 answers)
where the manufactured drug product is the active ingredient: 25% of the time remaining until the products expiration or 6 months

where a USP or NF substance is the source of active ingredient: 6 months
BUD: water containing products
14 days in the fridge
BUD: other formulations
intended duration of therapy or 30 days
BUD: repackaged commercial products
one year or the product's expiration, whichever is sooner
aliquot
a dilution of a potent drug powder with an inert diluent powder, usually
lactose, in a definite proportion by weight. We can then remove a weighable portion (aliquot) of the mixture containing the desired
quantity of substance to maintain an acceptable range of accuracy.
triturations
dilutions (1:10 w/wor 10 % w/w) dilutions of potent medicinal substances, such as morphine, cocaine, etc.
comminution
particle size reduction
levigation
the process where we reduce the particle size of a powder by triturating it in a mortar and pestle or spatulating in on an ointment slab or pad with a small amount of a liquid in which the solid is not soluble (mineral oil or glycerin); used for incorporating solids into ointments, pastes, and gels
spatulation
the process of mixing powders on an ointment slab or pad using a spatula; this process does not reduce particle size
