Document Summary
Most semi-solids are thermodynamically unstable but are kinetically stable. Must keep and eye out for oxidation. Cannot lose any volatile products (like fragrance/water in the packaging) Eye preparations must be sterile, but in the us, others do not have this requirement. Elegance: is a cosmetic criteria but important for compliance (will the pt want to use this?) Ease of application (is there pain on damaged skin?)

These criteria must be met and maintained and reproduced from batch to batch and from dose to dose. Oinements are very susceptible to microbial growth.
