Study Notes
Percentage Concentration in Pharmaceutical Preparations
- Percentage concentration is used in pharmaceutical preparations when the dose of the active therapeutic ingredient (ATI) is not specific
- Three types of percentage concentration are used:
- Percent weight in volume (w/v): expresses the number of grams of a constituent per 100 mL of solution or liquid preparation
- Expressed as: % w/v
- Example: Syrup g/mL
- Percent volume in volume (v/v): expresses the number of milliliters of a constituent in 100 mL of solution or liquid preparation
- Expressed as: % v/v
- Example: d5W mL/mL
- Percent weight in weight (w/w): expresses the number of grams of a constituent in 100g of solution or preparation
- Expressed as: % w/w
- Example: gel/tab g/g
- Percent weight in volume (w/v): expresses the number of grams of a constituent per 100 mL of solution or liquid preparation
Calculations for Weight-in-Volume Concentration
- To prepare a 5% solution of dextrose, 4000 mL of solution requires:
- 4000 mL represents 4000 g of solution
- 5% = 0.05
- 4000 g x 0.05 = 200 g of dextrose
- Alternative solution using dimensional analysis: 5 g/100 mL * 4000 mL = 200 g of dextrose
