GB1121358A — Aerosol manufacture

USPTO Abstract

A therapeutically effective amount of an anti-tussive agent is incorporated in an aqueous whipped-topping-type non-toxic aerosol foam composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion. The anti-tussive agent may be d-methorphan, d-methorphan hydrobromide or d-methorphan hydrobromide adsorbate. The composition may contain milk or cream or an emulsion of vegetable or mineral oil. The surfactant present may be a mono- or diglyceride, an acetylated mono- or di-glyceride, a lactated monoglyceride, a sorbitan ester or a polyoxethylene sorbitan ester. The propellant may be a "Freon" (Registered Trade Mark), nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide or nitrogen. Optional extras include methyl- or propyl-paraben, cetyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride, sorbic acid, benzoic acid, phenylephrine hydrochloride, sodium-CMC, sweeteners and flavours.ALSO:A therapeutically effective amount of an anti-tussive agent is incorporated in an aqueous whipped-topping-type non-toxic aerosol foam composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion.
