Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Acepromazine Maleate 25 mg/ml Topical Gel (Perme8® Anhydrous) (Vet) is a compounded formulation specifically designed for veterinary use. This semisolid formulation is dispensed through a pump mechanism, facilitating easy and precise application on the skin for targeted treatment or absorption of active ingredients in a gel-like consistency. The primary active ingredient, Acepromazine Maleate, is a sedative and tranquilizer used to treat a variety of disease states in animals.

The gel is applied directly to the skin of the animal, allowing for the slow and sustained release of Acepromazine Maleate into the bloodstream.

One of the key advantages of this formulation is its ease of application. The pump mechanism allows for precise dosing, reducing the risk of over or under-dosing. Furthermore, the gel-like consistency ensures that the medication stays where it is applied, reducing the risk of accidental ingestion or removal.

Another significant advantage of this formulation is its safety. The gel is non-irritating and non-toxic, making it safe for use in animals. This is particularly important in animals with sensitive skin or those that may be prone to adverse reactions to other forms of medication.

Its unique formulation allows for easy application and sustained release of the active ingredient. If you have any questions about this formulation or how it can be used to treat disease states in animals, please reach out to us at Bayview Pharmacy. Our team of compounding pharmacists is here to assist you.

Acepromazine Maleate 25 mg/ml Topical Gel (Perme8® Anhydrous) (Vet) is a semisolid formulation designed for veterinary use. This topical gel is dispensed through a pump mechanism, which allows for easy and precise application on the skin of animals. It is primarily used for targeted treatment or absorption of active ingredients in a gel-like consistency.

The topical gel is applied directly to the affected area, where it is absorbed through the skin and enters the bloodstream. Here, it works to alleviate inflammation and pain. The gel should be applied twice daily, or as directed by a veterinarian. It is crucial to adhere to the instructions on the package and to use the gel as directed.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
