Tetracycline 2% compoundind ophthalmic

Does anyone compound this and have a recipe? This seems to be the reference.

Thanks!

The use of tetracycline is based on this article: Perry, Julian D. M.D.*; Mehta, Viraj J. M.D., M.B.A.†; Costin, Bryan R. M.D.*. Intralesional Tetracycline Injection for Treatment of Lower Eyelid Festoons: A Preliminary Report.
