RESUMO
Objective:To optimize the matrix formula of Qingre Zhitong cataplasm. Methods:An orthogonal test was performed to study the matrix formula of Qingre Zhitong cataplasm with the comprehensive score of continued adhesion and integrated sensory as the evaluation indices and the ratio of sodium polyacrylate, carboxymethylcellulose sodium, aluminum chloride hydrate and glycerin as the influencing factor. Results:The optimal matrix formula of Qingre Zhitong cataplasm was as follows: the ratio of sodium polyacrylate, carboxymethylcellulose sodium, aluminum chloride hydrate and glycerin was 14 ∶1 ∶1 ∶120. Conclusion: Qingre Zhitong cataplasm prepared with the optimal matrix formula has good continued adhesion and integrated sensory, and the process parameters are stable and feasible.
