Pharmacists prepare individualized compounded medications based on a doctor's prescription. The individual active ingredients – often in minute quantities – are precisely weighed using an analytical balance. The manufacturing process is carried out without interruption to prevent contamination and is subject to the four-eyes principle at critical stages.
Medicated hair tonics are individually prepared in pharmacies according to a doctor's prescription. These preparations incorporate trace elements such as zinc or selenium, as well as highly effective ingredients like hormones. All components are weighed precisely according to the formula. This high precision is essential because hormonal agents, in particular, have a very narrow therapeutic range, and even slight deviations can affect efficacy or tolerability.
In a pharmacy, small amounts of a liquid medication are drawn into a blister unit using the thermoforming process. The total weight of the tray, which is specified, is weighed at the end of production. The weight of the individual blisters is calculated by dividing the total weight by the number of blisters. This control is necessary because these are medications and the filling quantity or dose is a very sensitive value that must be strictly adhered to.
In a mail-order pharmacy, larger batches are produced during the production of tea blends, packed in different containers (100g-1000g) and then weighed to check. The weight check is important so that the consumer can rely on the nominal filling quantity. Underfilling would result in complaints
In-house manufactured pharmacy products such as essential oils, liquid lipids, or creams are tested for identity and purity using refractometry. The rapid measurement of the refractive index supports reliable documentation and saves time in daily laboratory work.
For the production of syrups in the pharmacy, basic ingredients such as water, honey, and sugar are weighed precisely, while the active ingredients are measured using a precision scale. Adherence to the exact formula ensures consistent product quality, supports manufacturing accuracy, and enhances customer satisfaction.
