Example 1: If a formula for 1000 mL contains 6 g of a drug,
how many grams of drug are needed to prepare 60 mL of
the formula?
Answer:
60 𝑚𝐿
Factor = = 0.06
1000 𝑚𝐿
Reducing Factor
0.06 * 6 g = 0.36 g of the drug needed to prepare 60 mL.

Answer:
240
Factor = = 0.24
1000
Reducing Factor
Calamine = 80 g * 0.24 = 19.2 g
Zinc Oxide = 80 g * 0.24 = 19.2 g
Glycerin = 20 g * 0.24 = 4.8 g
Bentonite Magma = 250 mL * 0.24 = 60 mL

Example 5: From the following formula, calculate the quantity of
each ingredient required to make 1000 g of the ointment.
Rx
Coal Tar 5 parts
Zinc Oxide 10 parts
Hydrophilic Ointment 50 parts
Answer:
Total number of parts (by weight) = 5 + 10 + 50 = 65 which
resembles 1000 g of the ointment.
