For a random work task I've been looking through the product characteristics sheets for some treatments and I've come across the term "excipients q.s.f."

I know that exipients are essentially the filler used to carry and aid the injestion of the active ingredient, but what does the q.s.f. mean?

it seems to appear in the format:

each product contains

active ingredient 0.2g
excipients q.s.f 100g

anyone with any ideas?

thank you very much, I had wondered if that was what it meant, but had not found any way of confirming it. I thought you were a hot shot lawyer (when you're not clambering over mountains)?

this is the reason why STW is so good and so popular. The arguing minority bring it down a tad but breadth of knowledge and friendliness of the the majority keep it top of the pile in my book.
