Is a laminar air flow (LAF) cabinet necessary for preparing cyclosporine eye drops, given that a pharmacy in Brussels follows sterilization recommendations for castor oil and works as sterilely as possible without one, while many other pharmacists cite the lack of a LAF cabinet as their reason for refusing to make this preparation?

Answer

The Therapeutic Magistral Formulary (TMF) describes a procedure that can be performed without using a laminar air flow (LAF) cabinet. Although these are not ideal conditions, this method is considered acceptable.
