Ointments that are soluble in water are those that contain oleaginous bases. This component in ointments are also called hydrocarbon bases. It has an emollient effect and protects against the escape of moisture.
There are a few ways to prepare the bases. When preparing the bases that includes both oleaginous and aqueous components, use fusion.

Ointments can be classified into various categories based on their composition and purpose. Some common classifications include oil-based ointments, water-based ointments, and emulsion-based ointments. Sub-classifications can further categorize ointments based on specific ingredients, such as corticosteroids, antibiotics, antifungals, or antipruritics. Each sub-classification serves a different therapeutic purpose.

Creams are an O/W (oil in water) emulsion. Creams contain a small amount of oil dispersed in water. Most creams are "vanishing." They do not show once applied and are more cosmetically acceptable to most patients. Ointments are an W/O (water in oil) emulsion. Ointments are considered semisolid. Examples of bases used in ointments are: OLEAGINOUS or greasy based made from hydrocarbons such as in mineral oil or petroleum jelly. Other examples of W/O emulsions are lanolin or cold cream
