Inhaltsangabe

The basic formulas presented in this collection—spanning the 15-year existence (1988–2002) of Allen’s popular monthly column, “Contemporary Compounding,” from the pharmacy journal U.S. Pharmacist—provide for some uniformity of preparation as well as a starting point for further modification for specific patients. The volume is designed also to provide documentation for the use of these basic formulas as presented in the contemporary literature.
