pubmed-article:8266965 | pubmed:abstractText | The stability of fluconazole in an extemporaneously prepared oral liquid was studied. An aqueous liquid formulation of fluconazole was prepared by reconstituting the powder from triturated 100-mg tablets with deionized water; the nominal fluconazole concentration was 1 mg/mL. Glass vials of the liquid were stored in the dark at 4, 23, and 45 degrees C and sampled immediately and after 1, 2, 3, and 15 days. Samples were analyzed in duplicate for fluconazole concentration by high-performance liquid chromatography. The concentration of fluconazole was virtually unchanged under all the storage conditions. The results were confirmed by analysis of variance. Fluconazole 1 mg/mL in an extemporaneously prepared oral liquid was stable at 4, 23, and 45 degrees C for up to 15 days. | lld:pubmed |
