How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Zosil® Topical Gel is a compounded formulation that combines the active ingredients of benzocaine 2%, camphor 0.5%, and menthol 0.5%. This unique blend is specifically designed for the treatment of minor skin irritations, itching, and inflammation in horses. Each ingredient plays a crucial role in providing relief from these symptoms.

Benzocaine, a local anesthetic, works by numbing the area to which it is applied. This provides temporary relief from pain and itching, making it easier for your horse to rest and recover. Camphor, an anti-inflammatory agent, aids in reducing swelling and inflammation. This helps to alleviate discomfort and promotes healing. Lastly, menthol acts as a cooling agent. It soothes the skin and provides a cooling sensation, which can be particularly comforting for irritated or inflamed skin.

To use Zosil® Topical Gel, apply a thin layer to the affected area twice daily or as directed by your veterinarian. The gel should be gently massaged into the skin until it is completely absorbed. It is important to note that this product should not be applied to broken or irritated skin. Always wash your hands after use to avoid accidental ingestion or contact with eyes.

If you have any questions about Zosil® Topical Gel or its application, please do not hesitate to reach out. We are committed to providing the best care for your equine companions and are always here to assist you.

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.
