Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

Amitriptyline HCl 10 mg/0.1 ml Topical Cream (Vet) is a compounded formulation designed for topical application in animals. It is a semisolid preparation dispensed in a pump mechanism, ensuring convenient and controlled application on the skin for localized treatment. This formulation is primarily used for the treatment of various skin conditions in animals, including Atopic Dermatitis, Alopecia, Pruritus, Acral Lick Granuloma, and Interdigital Cysts.

The active ingredient, Amitriptyline, is a tricyclic antidepressant that works by blocking the reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine. This action helps to reduce inflammation and itching, thereby alleviating the symptoms of the aforementioned conditions. In the case of Alopecia, the reduction in inflammation and itching can also promote hair regrowth.

For Atopic Dermatitis, the anti-inflammatory effect of Amitriptyline can help reduce the symptoms. Similarly, for Pruritus, Acral Lick Granuloma, and Interdigital Cysts, the reduction in inflammation and itching can help to alleviate the symptoms. It is important to note that Amitriptyline HCl 10 mg/0.1 ml Topical Cream (Vet) should only be used under the supervision of a veterinarian to ensure appropriate treatment.

While this formulation is designed to provide targeted relief, it is crucial to consult with a veterinarian for proper diagnosis and treatment plan. If you have any questions or concerns about this medication, please reach out to a veterinary professional.

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.
