How to Select a Topical Base - Compounding Made Easy

Overview

Whether it’s pain management, hormone therapy, or dermatology – whatever your niche is, if you are a compounding pharmacist or pharmacy technician, chances are you are compounding topical preparations.

As innovations in base technology grow, the challenges with selecting a compounding base can appear more and more complex. Our objective with this free webinar is simple – to address your practical and applicable questions on how to select the right topical base for your preparation and patient, referring to Medisca’s topical compounding base line.

  • Are you looking for a quick-drying and versatile gel? Or perhaps something that is occlusive and anhydrous?
  • Are you looking for a base with functional properties, including moisturizing effects, antimicrobial effects, or scar reducing potential?
  • Are you looking for something that is suitable for vaginal use?
  • Are you looking for something with permeation data or stability testing?

The questions are numerous – and we've got you covered!

By joining the webinar you will hear from Medisca’s R&D Manager and vital player in the development of Medisca’s Drug Delivery Systems, Raman Sidhu. Got questions about compatibility, suitability, testing, and studies? She’s got you covered!

Also joining the webinar is Medisca Network’s Advanced Formulation & Clinical Pharmacist, Dr. Mindy Cormier, who will cover aspects on therapeutic intent and formulation considerations – all important pieces of the base selection puzzle.

This event is hosted by LP3 Network in partnership with MEDISCA.
