Replacement of Eumulgin O5 by Eutanol G?

I get an alternative formula for the existing bath oil with Eumulgin 05 in which this product is replaced by Eutanol G. The latter is available and interferes with the other ingredients. I do not find anything about the operation of the product. Can you tell me that this product is a good alternative to Eumulgin 05, which is not reimbursed by the RIZIV?
R/Salicylic Acid 5mg
Miglyol 200cc
Cetiol V 50cc
Komperlan KD 50cc
Eutanol G 50cc
paraffin oil up to 500cc

Answer

Eutanol G is a possible replacement product for Cetiol V. So you can leave it in the composition but in each case add Eumulgin O5 in order to obtain a nice dispersion of the oil in the bathwater. If you want to replace Eumulgin O5 then I have a suggestion: replace it with Tween 20 + Arlacel 83 1:1. This mixture has the same HLB value as Eumulgin O5 and the 2 products are on the list. But whether the operation is the same?
