Development and characterization of topical analgesic ointment - from laboratory to production scale

The purpose of this study was to scale up an ointment formulation containing 25% w/w methyl salicylate, developed via 300-g laboratory batches to 45-kg batch sizes in a homogenize mixer. Method: The ointment was manufactured by fusion method in a homogenous mixer. Characterization was conducted for...
