Fastest Way to Prescribe

Use the ED Injection Order Form or include the Bayview formulation code when e-prescribing.

For the clearest workflow, download the ED Injection Order Form, choose the Bayview formulation code, complete the directions/SIG, and fax the signed order. If e-prescribing, include the formulation code plus the full formulation, quantity, refills, syringe request if needed, and complete directions.

Prescribing Options

Bayview Pharmacy accepts ED injectable prescriptions by faxed order form, e-prescribe, or direct phone call from the prescriber’s office. If your patient declines or cannot use an injection, see the needle-free urethral gels below.

Pharmacy name and fax number must be completed by the prescriber’s office. They cannot be pre-printed on the order form.

E-prescribing

Prescribers may also send ED injectable prescriptions electronically through their EHR. Because compounded medications may not appear as a standard drug selection, the prescription should be entered using the compound, custom medication, or free-text prescription option available in the EHR.

NCPDP: 4106882

When e-prescribing a compounded ED injectable, include the same core information shown on the fax order form: medication group, specific formulation and strength, quantity, refills, syringe selection if needed, complete directions/SIG, maximum dose, and maximum weekly frequency when titration instructions are used.

To speed up e-prescribing, prescribers may include the Bayview Pharmacy formulation code from the order form. Codes run A1–A2 for Alprostadil, B1–B3 for Bimix, T1–T10 for Trimix, Q1–Q5 for Quadmix, and AT1–AT2 for Atropine Trimix — the full list with concentrations is in the formulation codes table below. The code should be included with the full formulation details so the pharmacy can verify the intended medication and strength.

Recommended Format

What to Include When E-prescribing

Medication group

Alprostadil, Bimix, Trimix, Quadmix, Atropine Trimix, or custom ED injectable formulation

Specific formulation/strength

List each active ingredient and strength exactly as intended.

Quantity

Specify vial size and number of multi-dose vials.

Refills

Specify number of refills, PRN, or no refills.

Syringes

Specify 30 gauge syringes and preferred size if syringes are needed.

Directions/SIG

Include starting dose, titration increment, maximum dose, and maximum weekly frequency.

Additional notes

Include any patient-specific clarification, counseling notes, or special instructions.

Formulation Codes

Formulation Codes

Use the Bayview code to speed up EHR entry.

Bayview formulation codes are shorthand identifiers tied to the ED injection options on the order form. The code helps the pharmacy identify the intended formula quickly, but the full formulation details should still be included so the prescription can be verified before compounding. Every standard code is listed below — select a medication group to jump to its concentrations, or open the formulation page for full prescribing detail, storage, and counseling notes.

A

Alprostadil

Single-active prostaglandin. The most widely studied intracavernosal option.

B

Bimix

Alprostadil-free. Often chosen when alprostadil causes penile pain.

Best practice: Include both the code and the full formulation. Example: T4 TRI-MIX: Alprostadil 20 mcg/mL + Papaverine 30 mg/mL + Phentolamine 2 mg/mL. Concentrations not shown above may still be compounded as a custom order — see the custom formulation notice below.

EHR Ordering Tips

Because each EHR handles compounded prescriptions differently, the exact screen names may vary. In most systems, the office should look for a compound medication, custom medication, miscellaneous medication, or free-text prescription option.

To help Bayview Pharmacy process the prescription quickly, include the Bayview formulation code from the formulation codes table, such as A1, B2, T4, Q1, or AT1, along with the full formulation details.

Quick rule: If the EHR does not have a clean compound medication workflow, use the free-text or notes field to enter the Bayview formulation code, full formulation, quantity, refills, syringe request, and complete SIG.

Select your EHR below for practical tips on entering compounded ED injectable prescriptions. Screen names vary by practice setup, but the same prescription elements should be included in every system.

Verification note: The Bayview formulation code is intended to speed up prescription entry. The full formulation, quantity, directions, and refill information should still be included so the pharmacy can verify the prescription before compounding.

Custom Formulation Cost Notice

Formulations listed with a Bayview Pharmacy order code are standard ED injection options. Prescriptions for custom strengths, non-listed formulations, or formulations submitted without an order code may require additional review and may have an increased cost.

To help avoid delays or unexpected pricing changes, include the closest applicable formulation code when possible, along with the full formulation, quantity, directions, and refill information.

Needle-Free Alternatives

For patients who decline or cannot use intracavernosal injection, Bayview Pharmacy also compounds two urethral gels. These are prescribed and submitted the same way as the injectables — by fax order form, e-prescribe, or phone — but each gel has its own order form and its own strengths.

Needle-Free · Intraurethral

Bimix Urethral Gel

The same two actives as Bimix injection — papaverine and phentolamine — in a gel. Alprostadil-free. Dosed as a single 0.25 mL application.

1

Missing patient date of birth or contact information

2

Missing prescriber signature or date on faxed orders

3

No quantity, vial size, or number of vials specified

4

No refill authorization or unclear refill instructions

5

No starting dose, titration increment, or maximum dose

6

No maximum weekly frequency included in the SIG

7

Formulation code included without full formulation details

8

Custom strength submitted without enough clarification

9

Syringe size not specified when syringes are requested

Ordering FAQ

Can a prescriber e-prescribe a compounded ED injection? +

Yes. Prescribers may e-prescribe when their EHR allows a compound, custom medication, miscellaneous medication, or free-text prescription entry. The prescription should include the Bayview formulation code when available, plus the full formulation, quantity, refills, syringe request if needed, and complete directions/SIG.

Do I still need the full formulation if I use a Bayview code? +

Yes. The code helps speed up identification, but the full formulation details should still be included so Bayview Pharmacy can verify the intended medication, strength, quantity, and directions before compounding.

What if the prescriber wants a custom strength? +

Custom strengths may be prescribed when clinically appropriate for an individual patient. Custom or non-listed formulations may require additional pharmacist review and may have an increased cost.

Can office staff call in the prescription? +

Prescribers or authorized office staff may call Bayview Pharmacy directly for prescription submission, clarification, titration questions, or refill coordination. Bayview Pharmacy can be reached at 401-284-4505.

What should the office do if the EHR will not accept the compound? +

Use the fax order form or call Bayview Pharmacy. The fax form is often the clearest option because it prompts for the formulation code, medication selection, quantity, refills, syringe selection, directions/SIG, signature, and date.
