Question

Posted on: March 6 2013

How do I make the next preparation? Metronidazole 40% Beeler Base AD 100g

is used with Ulcus. How to process? And can this be? Apparently they use that in UZ Gent.

Answer

After contacting UZ Gent, they reported to me that they made 90 following preparations with Flagyl: Flagyl 1.2 or 3% in a hydroxyethylcellulose or Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose gel in the early years. This gel was prepared and used sterile in foul-smelling deep wounds in both pressure ulcers and cancer (CFR. Article Pharmaceutical Weekly Journal 1988, 123 p. 1170-1171). Flagyl 1% in Beeler base or in Cetomacrogolcreme is not used sterile at ACN é Rosacae at the moment, the sterile gel is no longer prepared and replaced by 2 Commerci ë le Actisorb (Johnson and Johnson) and Carbonet (Smith Nephew) products Preparation to 40% has certainly never been prepared!
