Almond oil in extemporaneous prescription

Jan Hašek
Lékárna U Matky Boží, Doksy

Almond oil contains 20−30 % of linoleic acid glycerides present in several types of ceramides. The article discusses the importance of

lipids as a component of emollients and their effect on the skin barrier. Almond oil is an available pharmaceutical raw material and can be

formulated in extemporaneous preparations intended for adjuvant therapy of dermatitides and for skin care. Also included are formulas

for class I topical corticosteroids, containing an oleophilic base with almond oil, that are particularly suitable in paediatric practice.

Keywords: almond oil, vegetable oil, emollients, extemporaneous prescription, dry skin
