INDICES> fluconazole suspension (3)
-------------------------------------

In Kenya, we have a generic version from Bangladesh called "Omastin"
which
is far much cheaper.Otherwise, I am aware of a book By David Woods
called
"Formulations in pharmacy practice" which could be having this
formula. It
is available at this address www.pharminfotech.co.nz/emixt  or email
emixt@pharminfotech.co.nz

Dear Joe

The following formulation is given in MICROMEDEX CD.

A FLUCONAZOLE oral suspension was prepared by using FLUCONAZOLE
tablets
crushed and mixed with deionized water to a concentration of 1
milligram/milliliter. This suspension was stable for 15 days when kept
at
temperatures of 4, 23, and 45 degrees Celsius.

in an
extemporaneously prepared oral liquid. Am J Hosp Pharm 1993;
50:2366-2367
