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.

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, BM1–BM6 for Bimix, TM1–TM27 for Trimix, QM1–QM26 for Quadmix, and ATM1–ATM3 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.
What to Include When E-prescribing
Include the Bayview Pharmacy order code when available, such as A1, BM3, TM9, TM14, QM4, QM5, or ATM1.
Alprostadil, Bimix, Trimix, Quadmix, Atropine Trimix, or custom ED injectable formulation
List each active ingredient and strength exactly as intended.
Specify vial size and number of multi-dose vials.
Specify number of refills, PRN, or no refills.
Specify 30 gauge syringes and preferred size if syringes are needed.
Include starting dose, titration increment, maximum dose, and maximum weekly frequency.
Include any patient-specific clarification, counseling notes, or special instructions.
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.

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, BM3, TM9, QM4, or ATM1, along with the full formulation details.

Formulation Pricing
Standard strengths — $100 per 2.5 mL multi-dose vial. The 14 options printed on the ED Injection Order Form (A1, BM2, BM3, TM2, TM4, TM8, TM9, TM10, TM11, TM13, TM14, QM4, QM5, and QM6) are Bayview’s most commonly prescribed ED injectables.
Other validated strengths — $150 per 2.5 mL multi-dose vial. Every other code in the formulation codes table above is a validated Bayview formulation, tested to the applicable USP <797> requirements. Order these on the CUSTOM line of the order form, or include the code when e-prescribing.
Formulations that are not on the validated list may still be compounded when clinically appropriate, but they require additional pharmacist review and pricing is quoted case by case. To avoid delays or unexpected pricing, include the closest applicable formulation code 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.
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.
| Formulation | Papaverine | Phentolamine |
|---|---|---|
| Bimix Gel 1 | 7.5 mg/mL | 1 mg/mL |
| Bimix Gel 2 | 7.5 mg/mL | 2 mg/mL |
Triple-P Urethral Gel
Alprostadil, papaverine, and phentolamine in a gel, in four alprostadil strengths. Dosed as a single 0.25 mL application.
| Formulation | Alprostadil | Papaverine | Phentolamine |
|---|---|---|---|
| Triple-P 250 | 250 mcg/mL | 7.5 mg/mL | 1 mg/mL |
| Triple-P 500 | 500 mcg/mL | 7.5 mg/mL | 1 mg/mL |
| Triple-P 750 | 750 mcg/mL | 7.5 mg/mL | 1 mg/mL |
| Triple-P 1000 | 1000 mcg/mL | 7.5 mg/mL | 1 mg/mL |
Avoid Delays
Before sending the prescription, check for these common missing items.
Complete prescriptions allow Bayview Pharmacy to review, prepare, and coordinate the medication more efficiently. Missing details may require pharmacist clarification before compounding.
Missing patient date of birth or contact information
Missing prescriber signature or date on faxed orders
No quantity, vial size, or number of vials specified
No refill authorization or unclear refill instructions
No starting dose, titration increment, or maximum dose
No maximum weekly frequency included in the SIG
Formulation code included without full formulation details
Custom strength submitted without enough clarification
Syringe size not specified when syringes are requested
Download the ED Injection Order Form
The fax order form is often the clearest option for ED injection prescriptions because it prompts for the medication code, formulation, quantity, refills, syringe selection, directions/SIG, signature, and date.
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? +
Bayview maintains a validated list of 64 ED injectable formulations. The 14 strengths printed on the order form are $100 per 2.5 mL multi-dose vial; every other validated strength is $150 per 2.5 mL multi-dose vial and is ordered on the CUSTOM line. Strengths outside the validated list may be prescribed when clinically appropriate, but they require additional pharmacist review and are priced case by case.
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.
