This formula can be used to calculate the volume of solvent required to make a diluted solution. For example, to dilute a 50% w/ v stock solution to make 200 mL of a 5% w/ v solution, c1 = 50, c 2 = 5, and
v2 = 200.

5.4.5 Mixing Solutions of Different Concentrations
It is commonly necessary to mix two products that contain the same solute but have different concentrations. A convenient approach to solve these problems is the alligation method. Two kinds of alligation methods are commonly used: alligation medial and alligation alternate.

5.4.5.2 Alligation Alternate
5.4.5.2.1 For Two Ingredients
This method can be used to calculate the amount of a diluent, solute, or different concentration product that would need to be added to a given concentration product to make a new concentration preparation. The number of parts required for the lower- and higher- concentration preparations to make the target­concentration preparation is obtained by constructing a matrix and doing the calculation, as shown in Table 5.3.
Thus, subtracting the target concentration from the lower concentration gives the target amount of the higher- concentration preparation, and subtracting the higher concentration from the target concentra­tion gives the target amount of the lower- concentration preparation. Thus, the total amount of the target concentration preparation that would be prepared can be obtained by adding together the target amounts of higher- and lower- concentration preparations needed. Suppose the required amount of the target con­centration preparation differs from the amount obtained by the formula. In that case, the principles of proportion discussed earlier can be used to calculate the quantities needed for the required total amount of the target- concentration preparation.

An Example of Alligation Alternate Method for Two Ingredients
For example, to prepare 200 mL of a 12% w/ v sucrose solution using a 40% w/ v and another 5% w/ v sucrose solution, one would write the alligation matrix as shown in Table 5.4.
Thus, combining 7 mL of 40% w/ v solution with 28 mL of 5% w/ v solution would give 7 + 28 = 35 mL of 12% w/ v solution. To make 200 mL of 12% w/ v solution, one would use the principles of proportion as follows:

The required quantities of low- and high- concentration solutions can then simply be obtained by multi­plying their quantities obtained by the alligation formula by this factor. Thus, the quantity of 40% w/ v solution required = 7 × 5.714 = 39.998 = 40 mL. Therefore, the quantity of the 5% w/ v solution

5.4.5.2.2 For More Than Two Ingredients
The alligation alternate method can be used for more than two ingredients by pairing off the values of one higher (than the desired) strength ingredient with two lower (than the desired) strength ingredients, or vice versa. This is illustrated by the following example:
To prepare a 17.5% w/ w solution using a 10% w/ v, a 40% w/ v, and a 5% w/ v sucrose solution, one would write the alligation alternate method, as shown in Table 5.5.
Thus, combining 20 mL of 40% w/ v solution with 22.5 mL of 10% w/ v solution and 22.5 mL of a 5%

An Example of Alligation Alternate Method for More Than Two Ingredients
The alligation methods are applicable to all forms of preparations, including powders. In addition, the alligation method can also be used for calculating the required quantities for dilution of a preparation with the solvent or diluent alone by making the concentration of the lower- concentration preparation zero.
5.4.6 Aliquot Method of Dilution
There might be an instance when the drug quantity needed for dispensing is too small to be measured using the available instruments. A pharmacist can achieve precision in measurement beyond the instrument’s capacity by calculating and measuring in terms of aliquot parts. This occurs frequently when compounding is required for extremely potent pharmaceuticals intended for neonates. The ali­quot technique is applicable to both solids and liquids. Certain terminologies associated with the aliquot method are:

This means that this measuring cylinder can accurately measure a minimum volume of 0.2 mL
with an error margin of less than 5%.
2. A prescription requires 0.2 mL of olive oil. The smallest measuring cylinder in the pharmacy is a 10- mL graduate calibrated in units of 0.5 mL. How can you acquire the necessary quantity of olive oil using the aliquot approach with ethanol as the diluent?
Solution
Step 1. Choose a multiple of the desired quantity that meets the necessary precision requirements
for measurement. In this case, 0.5 mL is the minimum quantity that can be measured using this cylinder. If 5 is chosen as the multiplication factor, then: Measure 5 × 0.2 mL, or 1 mL of olive oil
Step 2. Calculate the quantity of diluent (ethanol) required by using the multiplication factor:
Diluent + drug mixture required = 1 mL × 5 = 5 mL
Step 3. Subtract the quantity of olive oil from the diluent (ethanol).

3. Using a 25 mL graduated cylinder calibrated in 5 mL units, describe how 1.25 mL of a drug solu­tion could be measured using the aliquot method. Use water as a diluent.
Solution
Find a multiplication factor that can be measured using the graduated cylinder. Multiplication factor = 1.25 mL × 4 = 5 mL Amount of water + drug solution required = 5 mL × 4 = 20 mL

osmoles and osmolarity of such a solute are calculated by multiplying with the number of particles formed on dissociation and the fractional degree of dissociation of a substance in solution. Thus, assuming com­plete dissociation, NaCl, CaCl2, and FeCl3 form 2, 3, and 4 particles in solution. Thus, a 1 mM NaCl, CaCl2, or FeCl3 represents their 2, 3, or 4 mOsmol solution, respectively.

administration of hypertonic solutions tends to be more tissue- damaging and painful than the adminis­tration of hypotonic solutions. Nonetheless, isotonic solutions are better tolerated by patients than the extreme of tonicity.
Preparation of isotonic solutions requires the use of one of the colligative properties of solutions. Colligative properties are the solution properties that depend on the number of molecules of solvent in a given volume of solution but are independent of the properties of the solute. These properties include lowering vapor pressure, elevation of boiling point, osmotic pressure, and depression of freezing point of a solution with increasing solute concentration. Of these, the depression of freezing point is conveniently used to calculate the amount of solute required to prepare an isotonic solution.

This corresponds to 5% w/ v glucose solution. The commonly available dextrose solution for intra­venous (IV) administration has this concentration. A similar concentration for an electrolyte, such as sodium chloride, should take into consideration the dissociation constant of the solute and the number of species produced in the solution. Thus, assuming NaCl in weak solutions is about 80% dissociated, the total number of solutes in the solution would be 1.8 times the number of molecules added. This (1.8) dissociation factor (abbreviation: i) is used to calculate isotonic concentrations of electrolytes.

These calculations show that 50 g/ L of glucose solution is isotonic to 9 g/ L of NaCl solution. Therefore, 50 g of glucose is tonic equivalent to 9 g of NaCl in quan- tities of solutes. The tonic equivalence of two substances represents the amounts that would produce the same osmotic pressure. Thus, the quantity of any substance divided by its dissociation factor, i, represents its tonic equivalent quantity to any other substance. This principle is used in the preparation of isotonic solutions by the addition of NaCl to hypotonic drug solutions to increase the tonicity to the physiological equivalent of 0.9% w/ v NaCl. Using the above conversion of tonic equivalents, NaCl equivalents (E values) of various substances are known in the literature. The number of grams of all ingredients in a pre­scription is multiplied by their E values and added to determine the osmotic equivalent of NaCl amount represented by the substances. In addition, the amount of NaCl required to make a 0.9% w/ v solution of the same volume as the prescription is determined. Subtracting the former from the latter gives the amount of NaCl needed to make the solution isotonic. Any substance other than NaCl, such as dextrose, can also be used to increase the tonicity of a solution by dividing the amount of NaCl needed by the NaCl equivalent of the other substance.

This is the amount of particles in solution equivalent to NaCl, which must be subtracted from the amount of NaCl needed to make an isotonic solution of the same volume as the prescription (i.e., 10 mL). This is calculated as:

If a prescription contains multiple components, the NaCl equivalent for each component is calculated separately and added together to make the total NaCl equivalents in the prescription. This total amount is then subtracted from the total NaCl that would be needed for the isotonicity of the volume of prescription to obtain the amount of NaCl that must be added to the prescription.
5.5 Clinical Dose Calculations
The dose of a drug represents the amount of the drug substance that a patient must take at one time. This amount is designed with the expectation of producing the optimum therapeutic effect while minimizing the unwanted side effects. In the current pharmacokinetic paradigm, the designed therapeutic dose for a patient is usually based on the desired target concentration of the drug substance in the patient’s central

Therefore, the daily dose is calculated based on the patient’s weight or BSA and divided by the number of doses per day to determine an individual dose amount. A set of doses administered over a period of time as a part of a treatment plan is termed dosage regimen.
