Study Notes
Semisolid Dosage Forms
- Semisolid dosage forms are dermatological products applied to the skin or mucous membranes for therapeutic, protective, or cosmetic functions.
- They have a semisolid consistency.
Characteristics
- They can cling to the skin or mucous membrane for a prolonged period to exert their therapeutic effect.
- The clinging is due to protection and occlusion.
Rheological Behavior
- Semisolids exhibit plastic rheological behavior.
- This behavior allows them to retain their shape and cling as a film until acted upon by an outside force.
