What is the difference between ointment and cream?
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
What are the general classification of ointments and their sub-classification?
Classified according to the ointment bases 1. Oleaginous bases ointments eg: hydrocarbon bases like soft & hard paraffin, ceresine, animal & vegitable oil bases 2. Absorption bases eg: beeswax, woolfat 3. Water soluable bases eg: macrogols 4. Emulsifying bases eg: emulsifying wax
How do pastes differ from ointments and creams?
Ointments are petroleum based - thus the slightly greasy feeling. Creams are water based. As for which is appropriate for usage - I go by this rule. Creams tend to dry out the area on which they are used (which are great for things like acne, etc). Ointments will hydrate the skin more - so if the skin is dry to begin with (not oily), then ointment is your best bet. You should be able to get both the ointment and cream in the same strength (% solution). Hope this helps.
