Abstract

Stable homogeneous fatty emulsions containing amphotericin B are prepared. According to one embodiment, amphotericin B is decrystallized using an acid and ethanol and then homogeneously dispersed in a lipid, following which it is emulsified. According to a second embodiment, amphotericin B crystals are kneaded until their presence can no longer be confirmed and the decrystallized amphotericin B is thereafter uniformly dispersed in a lipid and, thereafter, emulsified.
