Question

Posted on: January 13 2015

Do you have a formula for oxytocin nasal spray 40 IU/ml?

This exists in NL under the name Syntocinon. Entering from NL is cumbersome. The raw material is not to get in bulk, but we can leave an ampoule.

Answer

I suggest following formula for

Oxytocin 400 mg from a Syntocinon ampoule; g Lycerine 260 mg; Chlorbutanol 50 mg and water for storage up to 10 ml.  

The nasal spray can be stored for 3 months in the refrigerator.
