Related entries: Glycogelatin - Pills
Pastilles consist of a basis of glycogelatin, with which, when melted on a water-bath, the active medicinal agent, in solution or suspension, is incorporated. If insoluble, the medicament should be rubbed with a little glycerin before mixing with the hot basis. The melted mixture should be poured into circular moulds of suitable size, or into a suitable tray to solidify and then cut into the required number of pastilles, each of which should measure 2 centimetres in diameter and weigh about 2 grammes. The moulds should be carefully lubricated with almond oil previous to pouring in the melted mixture. The quantities given in each formula are for one pastille.
