    Lab 5: Preparation of simple solutions.


    A solution is a homogeneous mixture composed of only one phase. In such a
    mixture, a solute is a substance dissolved in another substance, known as a
    solvent.

    In Pharmacy Purified Water should be used


    Simple Solutions can be prepared using the following general method:

    1. Weigh the solids and transfer them into a suitable container.


    2. Calculate 3/4 (three quarters) of the total volume of the vehicle and
    subtract from it the volume of any liquid component.
    3. Measure the resultant volume of the vehicle and add it to the contents
    of the container.
    4. Stir until the solid medicaments dissolves.
    5. Measure the liquid ingredient and add it to the container.
    6. Stir until becomes homogenous.
    7. Transfer the contents of the container to a suitable measuring
    cylinder and add a sufficient vehicle to reach the final volume.
    8. Transfer the mixture to a suitable "Dispensing bottle".
    9. Attach a label with the following instructions:
    a. For Internal Use (or For External Use if it is)
    b. Prescriber name
    c. Patient name
    d. Directions for use
    e. Medication name/compositions
