  • In the context of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, hydroxychloroquine has been proposed as a potential agent to treat COVID-19 patients. Older adults are more susceptible to COVID-19 and some patients may require admission in intensive care units, where oral drug administration of solid forms may be compromised in many COVID-19 patients. However, liquid formulation of hydroxychloroquine is not commercially available. This study describes how to prepare a 50 mg/mL hydroxychloroquine oral suspension using hydroxychloroquine sulfate powder and Syrspend SF dry pH4® suspending vehicle. Moreover, a fully validated stability indicating method has been developed to demonstrate the physicochemical stability of the compounded hydroxychloroquine oral suspension over 60 days under refrigeration (5 ± 3°C). Finally, use of the proposed oral suspension provides a reliable solution to perform safe and accurate administration of hydroxychloroquine to patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection.
