| abstract |
The method provides a process for the preparation of a liquid emulsion composition having a continuous aqueous phase containing a gelling agent and a thickener and optionally a physiologically tolerable amount of at least one water-soluble vitamin and/or non-vitamin drug, and a discontinuous oil phase, optionally comprising at least one lipophilic vitamin and/or non-vitamin lipophilic drug and optionally a triglyceride. The composition contains at least one emulsifying agent. By the method the formation of an aqueous composition is made, comprising an aqueous solution of a gelling agent and a thickener, and optionally at least one water soluble vitamin and/or non-vitamin drug, formation of a water-immiscible liquid composition, containing at least one emulsifier, and optionally at least one lipophilic vitamin and/or a non-vitamin drug, mixing the water immiscible composition with at least part of the water composition by means of which oil-in-water emulsion is produced. 25 claims |
