Suppository mass foaming is an important technological problem when making suppositories in an Unguator mixing machine that has an impact on the final quality and the decreased content of an active ingredient in suppositories. Dimethicone is commonly used as antifoam reducing the surface tension of liquid, which forms walls of gas bubbles. The study shows that using dimethicone results in the reduction of aeration of the suppository mass from 10.5% to 20.1%.
