в зависимости от консистенции – на собственно мази, кремы, гели, линименты,
пасты.
Для приготовления мазей используют разрешенные к медицинскому при-
менению основы: липофильные, жировые, силиконовые и др. В мази могут
быть введены консерванты и другие вспомогательные вещества.
Жирорастворимые лекарственные вещества предварительно растворяют в
расплавленной липофильной основе или в липофильных компонентах сложных
основ. Водорастворимые ЛВ растворяют в воде, являющейся составной частью
мази, а затем смешивают с основой.
При приготовлении мази на безводной основе, ЛВ растворяют в мини-
мальном количестве воды, эмульгируют с равной массой безводного ланолина
и смешивают с основой. Нерастворимые в основе ЛВ предварительно измельчают в наимельчайший порошок, растирая с половинным количеством от массы
ЛВ предварительно расплавленной основы. Летучие вещества вводят в состав
мазей в последнюю очередь при температуре не выше 40оС.
Хранят мази в упаковке, обеспечивающей стабильность в течение указан-
ного срока годности, в прохладном, защищенном от света месте.

Situation 1: Burnt tongue
Visitor:
Hello, I need some advice. My son has burned his tongue when he was drinking
some hot chocolate, and it is very sore. Do you have anything which can help alleviate the soreness?
Assistant:
This is one of the most difficult things to treat because the tongue is so sensitive.
We have some gel which acts as a cooling agent and not toxic in any way.
Assistant:
If he puts it on the sore area after meals and just before he goes to bed it will
help
The other thing you can do is to drink lots of cool drinks, which is not difficult
in this climate.
Visitor:
How much does this gel cost?
Assistant:
It is only four euros and will be enough to cure the soreness.
Visitor:
Thank you very much.
