Abstract: A clear gel and a cream pharmaceutical composition containing meclofenamic acid are disclosed. The clear gel composition is prepared by dissolving meclofenamic acid in polyethylene glycol monolaurate and polyethylene glycol lanolin oil and adding isopropyl alcohol with mixing and finally adding colloidal silicon dioxide with mixing. The cream composition is prepared by adding meclofenamic acid or the sodium salt thereof to an emulsion prepared by mixing a warm aqueous solution of sorbic acid with a melt of polyethylene glycol monostearate, glyceryl monostearate, caprylic and capric triglyceride and mineral oil.The resulting compositions are indicated for the treatment of inflammation.

Abstract: A clear gel composition containing a topically active anti-inflammatory steroid and a neomycin salt is disclosed. The clear gel composition is prepared by dissolving the steroid in a polyhydroxy alcohol/lower alcohol solvent, a major proportion of the polyhydroxy alcohol solvent being propylene glycol, and adding a hydroxycellulose ingredient; an aqueous solution of the neomycin salt is then added to the steroid formulation and, upon the addition of an alkali metal chloride salt, such as sodium chloride, a clear gel is obtained. The pH may be adjusted to 4-5. The resulting composition is indicated for the relief of corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses.
