PROFESSIONAL ENGLISH IN USE FOR MEDICINE
Types of medication
Ointments are greasier
than creams and have a thicker texture. This makes them adhere to the
affected area longer. Creams
are more acceptable cosmetically and tend to be used on the face as they are
less visible. Pastes are
stiffer preparations which contain more powdered solids. Lotions are liquid
and used in areas such as the scalp where an ointment or cream would adhere to
the hair.
