Abstract From the Canadian patent

The Specification describes a pharmaceutical cream composition comprising a dispersion of a wax in an aqueous phase comprising water and a water-miscible hydroxylic solvent, the total quantity of wax being 5.0 to 30% the quantity of water being 7.0 to 75% and the total quantity of hydroxylic solvent being 10 to 80% these, amounts being based on the total weight of the composition. The cream compositions are substantially oil-free and this represents an important practical advantage over prior cream compositions containing oils. The cream compositions may contain a drug intended for topical application e.g. an anti-inflammatory steroid.
