Alligation

Alligation is used to obtain a new strength (percentage) that is between two strengths the pharmacist has in stock. It is used when the problem deals with three [ ]s.

37. A pharmacist is asked to prepare 80 grams of a 12.5% ichthammol ointment with 16% and 12% ichthammol ointment that she has on stock. How many grams of the 16% and the 12% ointment are required?

Higher (16%)- - - - - -Label- - - - - - - -0.5 parts of 16% \ / \ / \ / 12.5% Desired / \ / \ / \ Lower 12%- - - - - - - -label- - - - - - - -3.5 parts of 12% 1. Divide the total weight (80 g) by the number of parts to get the weight per part. 80 g/ 4 parts= 20 grams per part 2.

Moles and Millimoles

Mol is the molecular weight of a substance in grams or g/m. A mmol is 1/1,000 of the molecular weight in grams or 1/1,000 of a mole. For monovalent species, the numeric value of the millliequivalent and millimole are identical.

Percentage Strength

Number/ratio as fraction of 100 Expressed as -%w/v g/100ml -%v/v ml/100ml -%w/w g/100g

Dilution and Concentration

Q1 x C1 = Q2 x C2

What is the specific gravity of 150 ml glycerin weighing 165 grams? Round to the nearest tenth.

SG= 165 grams glycerin/150 ml water =1.1; it is heavier than water

milliequivalents

The amount in mg of a solute equal to 1/1000 of its gram equivalent weight, taking into account the valence of the ions. Quantity of particles is important but so is the electrical charge.

Osmolarity

The measure of the total number of particles or solutes per liter of solution. To be defined as osmoles/liters or more commonly as mOsmol/L. Solutes can be either ionic such as NaCl which dissociates into two solutes in solution that being Na+ and Cl- or non ionic such as glucose and urea which do not dissociate.

Specific Gravity

The ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water. Water has a SG of 1. 1 g water= 1 ml water -Substances with an SG less than one are lighter than water and substances with an SG greater than one are heavier than water. SG= Weight of substance (G)/ Weight equal volume of water(G) simplified to SG=g/ml

Isotonicity

equal concentrations outside and inside a cell, which causes no change in cell volume. E= 58.5(i)/ (MW of Drug) X (1.8) Once E-value is determined then... 1. Calculate the total amount of NaCl needed to make the final product/prescription isotonic by multiplying 0.9% NS. 2. Calculate the amount of NaCl represented by the drug. To do this, multiply the total drug amount in milligrams or grams by the "E-Value) 3. Subtract step 2 from step 1 to determine the total amount of NaCl needed to prepare an isotonic prescription.

Osmolarity formula

mOsmol/L = Wt of substance (g/L)/MW (g/mole) X # of particles X 1000 Steps 1. Add up the number of particles into which the compound dissociates. 2. Calculate the number of grams of the compound present in 1L. 3. Use the molecular weight to solve the problem.

mols and mmols formula

mols=g/MW mmols = mg/MW
