DEVELOPMENT AND EVALUATION OF A READY TO USE CEFPODOXIME PROXETIL SUSPENSION
AbstractAntibiotics are not chemically stable in water based oral pharmaceutical suspensions. Anhydrous liquid antibiotic suspension for oral administration provides a product having good shelf life and taste characteristics relative to conventional liquid formulations. A ready to use oil based cefpodoxime proxetil preparation which can be stored at room temperature was prepared and evaluated for its organoleptic properties, viscosity, flow behavior and accelerated physical and chemical stability. The formulation showed improved redispersibility, good taste masking of the bitter drug and allows the product to be stored longer preventing hydrolysis of the drug.
