Creams

Creams are semi‑solid topical preparations that combine oil and water phases to deliver active drugs to the skin. Mastering their classification, preparation, and quality control is essential for the Basic Dispensing Theory IV exam because creams are the most frequently prescribed dosage form in dermatology and cosmetology.
