Kojic Acid

Kojic Acid

I am trying to formulate a kojic acid cream but am not sure if I should use alcohol as a solvent (the kojic acid crystals are too big for a skin preparation), or whether alcohol would make the kojic acid lose its efficacy.  Any help concerning compunding with kojic acid would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

I'm sorry, but I have no expertise in chemical formulation of medications.  Your best bet to start would be to contact a compunding pharmacy in your area.  These specialize in mixing medications, otherwise a lost art among pharmacists.  They can either answer you or point you in the right direction.

Best.
