Question 3 (5 + 8 + 4 + 8 + 5 = 30 marks) You need to prepare 80 mL of Ferrous sulfate mixture APF for a patient. 100 mg Ferrous sulfate mixture APF Ferrous sulfate 3 g Ascorbic acid Syrup 5 mL Benzoic acid solution 2 mL Purified water to 100 ml Here is some information that may be helpful in answering this question: (1) Benzoic acid solution contains 5 g of benzoic acid per 100 mL of solution. (2) Syrup is a 66.7% w/w aqueous solution of sucrose. (3) The density of the syrup is 1.313 g/mL. (a) What is the likely function of each ingredient in the above formulation. (b) Determine the amounts of the first four ingredients needed to prepare 80 mL of Ferrous sulfate mixture APF. (c) What is the ratio strength of ascorbic acid in this formulation? (d) In Australia it is a requirement that an oral formulation must declare on the product label "contains sugars” where “the presence of sugars may have a significant glycaemic effect and the total sugar content (including lactose which requires a separate declaration) exceeds 100 mg per maximum recommended daily dose." (from TGO No 91). If the daily dose of Ferrous sulfate mixture APF is 10 mL, determine the mass of sugar in a 10 mL dose and hence determine if the statement "contains sugars” needs to be on the product label. (e) Determine the concentration of benzoic acid (% w/v) in the Ferrous sulfate mixture APF.
