DO NOT COMPOUND — unresolved source inconsistency.

COMPOUNDING ON HOLD: an unresolved critical discrepancy exists. This record is for study and investigation; do not execute until a documented resolution is available.

Aprepitant: monograph uses 4 × 80 mg; the 80 mg technical note (18/05/2026, p.2) method says 4 × 125 mg. Do not compound pending publisher clarification. The 16 mL is added vehicle, not q.s. ad.

Personal protective equipment

Partial evidence

Complete formula-specific PPE is not specified. Select gloves, eye protection and exposure controls using the exact materials’ SDS and the local risk assessment.
Supplementary AEMPS framework: clean long-sleeved laboratory clothing, hair covering and dedicated footwear/overshoes. Powder handling requires suitable eye/respiratory protection; change gloves with activity or damage. Select the exact type/material using SDS and risk assessment.

Risks and precautions

Partial evidence

A complete formula-specific hazard classification is not established. Assess potency, dust/aerosol, allergens, solvents, microbial risk and cross-contamination using the actual materials and process. Absence of a flag does not establish absence of hazard.

Compounding conditions

Partial evidence

Follow the addition sequence, temperatures and times stated under Preparation Procedure. The specific monograph is not a complete qualification of the local facility/equipment.

BUD rationale

Documented in source

Monograph reports 1 month. This is not an approved BUD while the record is on HOLD.
The source period applies to its exact composition, method and packaging. It is not this batch’s expiry date and cannot be transferred to another vehicle/strength. Calculate the actual date in the blank batch record.

Bases and dependencies

Partial evidence

No separate base is identified in the dependency register. Check any commercial vehicles/compound excipients listed in the formula.

Equipment

Editorial checklist

Indicative checklist derived from the method: Balance of suitable resolution, Containers and mixing tools compatible with the materials, Mortar and pestle, Capsule-filling equipment, Calibrated pH meter. Selection/qualification is defined locally.

Preparation procedure

Documented in source

DOCUMENTARY ONLY; DO NOT COMPOUND. The 80 mg monograph wets four capsule contents with 2–3 mL of the measured 16 mL vehicle, waits 2–3 min, triturates 10–15 min, dilutes progressively and transfers quantitatively using the remaining vehicle. It does not specify q.s. ad 16 mL.

References: [1]

Observations

Documented in source

DISCREPANCY: the supplementary 80 mg note, v2 dated 18/05/2026, states four 125 mg capsules in its method, conflicting with the monograph’s 4 × 80 mg. Publisher clarification is required. Do not substitute bulk aprepitant: this source concerns the specified capsule contents.
