ORA-Plus® Oral Suspending Vehicle

ORA-Plus® is an aqueous-based suspending vehicle used to simplify the process of compounding oral suspensions. Properties: ORA-Plus® consists of a synergistic blend of suspending agents that have a high degree of colloidal activity, forming a gel-like matrix which suspends particles and allow for little settling. ORA-Plus® is buffered to a slightly acidic pH to help reduce degradation of medicinal agents through oxidation and contains anti-foam agents to allow for vigorous shaking with minimal foam. Applications: ORA-Plus® retains its suspending properties when diluted up to 50% with water, flavoring agents, syrups or alcohol. Its versatility makes it ideal for pediatric, geriatric, and naso-gastric suspensions. How to Use: ORA-Plus can be used in a combination with any flavoring syrup, but it is specially formulated to complement ORA-Sweet®; combined in a 50/50 ratio.
