Methods: Two sets of liquid formulations were prepared using two different vehicles: one set in sterile water and in simple syrup (1:1) and one set using equal volumes of commercially available suspending agent (Ora-Plus) and simple syrup. The concentration of tacrolimus in each formulation was 0.5 mg/mL. The preparations containing Ora-Plus were stored at 25°C, the formulations that were prepared with sterile water and simple syrup were stored under refrigeration at 4°C. Results: Samples were collected at regular time intervals over a period of 56 d…
