Design and evaluation of a UV protection formula in a Pharmacy
Abstract
The alarming increase of melanoma cases in today’s society has resulted in a greater awareness among people, who are aware of the need to use UV protection as a mechanism of protection not only against this pathology but also against less severe pathologies which have great incidence (sunburnt, solar elastosis, skin spots, etc.). The magistral formulation is a proper activity from pharmacists; therefore, pharmacists may create personalized pharmaceutical compounds according to the type and needs of the person’s skin. This study shows a prototype UV protection formula from which it was carried out a four-month hydration and stability study. In addition, we complete a survey to know the level of knowledge of the surveyed population in order to improve their health education.
