I'm a pharmacy technician student attending school for 7 months now and you are the first to explain calculations where it's understood. The steps are great tools I will be utilizing. WOW!! Your teaching has given me more confidence in my ability to learn. Thank you!!
Thanks Anais for watching and for the question. The formula in Example 2 is for one ophthalmic ointment tube and each tube is 3.5 grams. The way we know that is to look at the very last line of the formula where it says add sufficient quantity (qs ad) of white petrolatum to make 3.5 grams. We multiply the 3.5 g by 2000 because we want to make 2000 ointment tubes and need to know how much of each component is needed for the larger quantity that we want to compound. Hope this helps.
Thank you ROBIN for watching and for the question. From the formula, you need to add sufficient quantity of the white petrolatum to get the 3.5g. When we enlarge the formula to make 7000 g of ointment we need to subtract the amounts (in grams) of all the other ingredients calculated to get the amount of the white petrolatum base needed for the preparation. Hope this helps.
The 100 g comes from the definition of percentage strength based on weight by weight (th-cam.com/video/rThjXRh7Qtg/w-d-xo.html). For example 10% w/w means 10 g in 100 g preparation. I hope this explanation helps.

Thank you Hena for watching and for the comment.
In example number 2, where did I get the 1 in the factor isn't it supposed to be 3.5?
For number 3,
Why did you multiply 3.5g * 2000? How do you know the weight of one ointment is 3.5g?

in example no. 2 where did you get 100 g?
