Abstract

Because the coincidence of hyperthyroidism and pregnancy is rare, there is come uncertainty in the management of these patients. In order to avoid complications during the course of pregnancy, it is important to know--besides etiology and pathogenesis--the particularities in diagnosis and start of the appropriate therapy in time.

Stability of propylthiouracil in extemporaneously prepared oral suspensions at 4 and 25 degrees C.

The stability of propylthiouracil in two extemporaneously prepared suspensions at 4 and 25 degrees C was studied. Commercially available 50-mg propylthiouracil tablets were used to prepare suspensions in 1:1 Ora-Sweet:Ora-Plus and in 1:1 1% methylcellulose:Simple Syrup, NF, to yield a propylthiouracil concentration of 5 mg/mL. Each suspension was stored in 10 amber plastic prescription bottles, 5 of them at 4 degrees C and the other 5 at 25 degrees C. Three samples were taken from each bottle at 0, 7, 14, 28, 42, 56, 70, and 91 days for assay by stability-indicating high-performance liquid chromatography. More than 90% of the initial propylthiouracil concentration was retained in both suspensions for 70 days at 25 degrees C and for 91 days at 4 degrees C. There were no changes in physical appearance, color, or odor, and the pH remained essentially unchanged. Propylthiouracil 5 mg/mL in two extemporaneously prepared oral suspensions was stable for at least 70 days at 25 degrees C and for at least 91 days at 4 degrees C.
