Ointment refers to a paste-like external preparation with appropriate consistency, which is prepared by uniformly mixing a drug with a suitable base. Ointments are divided into three categories according to the dispersion system, solution type, suspension type and emulsion type. Pastes, gels, rigid foams, etc., which are similar to ointments but differ in nature

Commonly used substrates can be divided into three categories:

Oily bases, including hydrocarbons such as petrolatum, paraffin, liquid paraffin, etc.;

Lipids such as lanolin, beeswax, spermaceti, dimethicone, etc.; oils and fats.

Emulsion type bases include water-in-oil type and oil-in-water type, and their commonly used emulsifiers include soaps, fatty alcohols and sodium sulfates, higher fatty alcohols and polyhydric alcohol polyoxyethylene ether derivatives and the like. The commonly used water-soluble matrix is CMC-Na

Commonly used methods for the preparation of ointment include grinding method, fusion method and emulsification method.

The quality assessment of ointment includes determination of main drug content, melting range, consistency, irritation, stability, drug release penetration and absorption, etc.

At Bottlinglife, we manufacture high quality filling machine for viscous product such as ointment cream, lotion and other viscous products.
