Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present the Benazepril HCl 2 mg/0.1 ml Topical Gel (Vet), a compounded formulation designed for the management of hypertension, chronic kidney disease, heart failure, diabetes, and renal insufficiency. This topical gel is a semisolid formulation 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 active ingredient, benazepril, is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor that works by blocking the action of angiotensin-converting enzyme, thereby reducing blood pressure and improving kidney function. This can help to reduce the risk of heart failure, diabetes, and renal insufficiency.

The gel is easy to apply and can be used in combination with other medications to help control symptoms. It is crucial to adhere to the instructions of your healthcare provider when using this medication.

Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

Benazepril HCl 2 mg/0.1 ml Topical Gel (Vet) is a semisolid formulation designed for easy and precise application on the skin. This veterinary medication is primarily used for the treatment of hypertension, chronic kidney disease, heart failure, diabetes, and renal insufficiency in animals. The active ingredient, Benazepril HCl, works by inhibiting the action of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which aids in reducing blood pressure and improving kidney function.

Studies have shown that Benazepril HCl can significantly reduce the risk of stroke, heart attack, and death in patients suffering from hypertension, chronic kidney disease, heart failure, diabetes, and renal insufficiency. It may also be utilized to decrease the risk of progression of renal insufficiency in patients with diabetes, and to mitigate the risk of progression of heart failure in patients with hypertension, chronic kidney disease, and diabetes.

However, caution should be exercised when using Benazepril HCl in patients with renal impairment, as it may heighten the risk of adverse effects. Regular monitoring for signs and symptoms of renal impairment, such as changes in urine output, increased serum creatinine, and decreased glomerular filtration rate, is recommended. Additionally, patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms of hyperkalemia, which include muscle weakness, fatigue, and nausea. If you have any questions regarding this medication, please do not hesitate to reach out.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Benazepril HCl 2 mg/0.1 ml Topical Gel (Vet) is a semisolid formulation of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor benazepril hydrochloride. This medication is dispensed through a pump mechanism, facilitating easy and precise application on the skin for targeted treatment or absorption. It is used in the management of various conditions such as hypertension, chronic kidney disease, heart failure, diabetes, and renal insufficiency.

The gel is applied directly to the skin, where it is absorbed into the bloodstream and works to reduce blood pressure by blocking the action of angiotensin-converting enzyme. This action helps to relax the blood vessels and reduce blood pressure, thereby reducing the risk of stroke, heart attack, and other cardiovascular complications.

For hypertension, the gel is applied once daily to the affected area. It is crucial to adhere to the instructions of your healthcare provider when using this medication and to monitor your blood pressure regularly to ensure that the medication is working effectively.

In the case of chronic kidney disease, the gel is applied twice daily to the affected area. Regular monitoring of your kidney function is essential to ensure that the medication is working as intended.

For heart failure, the gel is applied twice daily to the affected area. Regular monitoring of your heart function is necessary to ensure the effectiveness of the medication.

For diabetes, the gel is applied once daily to the affected area. Regular monitoring of your blood sugar levels is crucial to ensure that the medication is working effectively.

For renal insufficiency, the gel is applied twice daily to the affected area. Regular monitoring of your kidney function is necessary to ensure the effectiveness of the medication.

If you have any questions about how to use Benazepril HCl 2 mg/0.1 ml Topical Gel (Vet), please consult with your healthcare provider.

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.
