8. • Ointments are used topically for
several purposes, e.g., as
protectants, antiseptics,
emollients, antipruritics,
kerotolytics, and astringents.
• In the case of a protective ointment,
it serves to protect the skin against
moisture, air, sun rays and other
external factors.
• It is necessary that the ointment
neither penetrates the human skin
barriers nor facilitates the
absorption of substances through
this barrier.

9. • An antiseptic ointment is used
to destroy or inhibit the
growth of bacteria.
Frequently bacterial
infections are deeply seated; a
base which has the capacity to
either penetrate or dissolve and
release the medication
effectively is therefore desired.
• Ointments used for their
emollient effect should be easy
to apply, be non-greasy and
effectively penetrate the skin.

of ointment bases which are
differentiated on the basis of
their physical composition.
These are:
1. Oleaginous bases.
2. Absorption bases.
3. Water in oil emulsion bases.
4. Oil in water emulsion bases.
5. Water soluble or water
