Answer
As in a previous question (' How can this be best prepared? '), it is also necessary to add postphosphate to obtain a precipitate of teracycline. It promotes the stability of the tetra and avoids the incompatibility with tragacanth that you have observed. On page 125 of the Galenic formulary, the ratio of 3 disodium phosphate is 12 aq to 4 tetracycline. HCl. I would first mix phosphate, sulfur and tragacant; Then moisten with 200 mg of Tween and Camphor Spiritus in which the remaining camphor is dissolved gradually add.
In addition, Tetra and Sulpho resorcinol are dissolved in 150 ml of water and this solution is slowly poured under good stirring at the mass in the mortar. The suspension is transferred into a measuring cylinder and the mortar is rinsed several times with the remaining water.
