Incompatibility:

1. Incompatibility occurs as a result of mixing two or more antagonistic substance.
2. It produces an undesirable chemical reaction when mixed.

Types of Incompatibility:

1. Therapeutical
2. Chemical
3. Physical

Tolerated incompatibility:

• In the case of an undesirable chemical reaction, the interaction can be minimized by changing the order of the mixture.
• It is diluted during the process, which is called as Tolerated incompatibility.
• This is a type of chemical incompatibility.

Examples are:

1)Alkaloidal Incompatibility
