SUSPENSION
Preparation containing finely divided drug particles
distributed uniformly throughout a vehicle
2 phase systems
dispersed medium can be oily or aqueous
dispersed phase is usually greater than 0.5
Preparation = GELOMAMI
Purpose: Sustaining Effect
Stability
Taste
Base Solubility
Properties of Ideal Suspension
uniform particle size
no particle interaction
no sedimentation or slow sedimentation rate
other properties:
redisposable, chemically stable, acceptable to
consume

Procedures:
Place Mg(OH)2 in a blender
Add Sorbitol Soln
Add purified water (1/3)
Blend the mixture 5 mins
Add Al(OH)3 gel blend for 5 mins
Place CMC in a mortar & triturate with 50 mL
water until paste is formed
Add CMC paste to the blender
In a separate container, heat water to 500C &
dissolve saccharin solution & Sodium benzoate.
Cool the soln to 400C. Charge into blender &
blend for 10 mins
Easily wetted

Procedures:
Mix the powders & blend for 15 mins using
titration
Prepare 20 mL colorant solution & spray into
powder mixtures with continuous trituration until
a moist mass is formed
Pass the moist mass through sieves #12 & receive
net granules in a tray
Oven dry granules a temp not exceeding 400C -1
hour
Dry the granules until 1 nmt 2% moisture is
present. Check the moisture content every 30
mins weigh & pack the divided granules
