Abstract
Abstract— Carbopol is an acrylic polymer. Carbopol isnon-toxic and non-irritating so that it is suitable for gel
preparations. Carbopol 940 is often used as a gelling agent in
gel preparations. Concentration of carbopol 940 as a gelling
agent needs to be concerned to obtain a good gel preparation.
This study aimed to determine the effect of carbopol 940
concentration on physical properties, drug release and the use
in eye drops. The research method used was descriptive
method with data collection technique using PICO (Population,
Intervention, Compare, Outcame) approach. Based on the
Descriptive research results, it was obtained that carbopol 940
had influences on the physical properties of the gel in the form
of pH, viscosity, spreadability, adhesion, organoleptic and
stability. Carbopol 940 is commonly used in controlled-release
drug formulations. In addition, carbopol 940 is also safe to use
in eye drops preparations which do not cause irritation in in
vivo testing.
