Neuropathic pain is a complex, chronic pain state that usually is accompanied by tissue injury.  Neuropathic pain results from damage to or dysfunction of the peripheral or central nervous system, rather than stimulation of pain receptors.

The pharmacists at Bayview Pharmacy have the ability to compound several transdermal medications that may help to alleviate many forms of neuropathic pain.  These gels/creams would be easy to use, may cause fewer systemic side effects than their oral counterparts, and custom made to meet your individual needs.  They might contain a combination of the following medications:

Amitriptyline

Baclofen

Carbamazepine

Clonidine

Gabapentin

Ketamine

Mexiletine

Phenytoin
