Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present our specially compounded oral gel formulation of Benzocaine 30%/Caffeine 0.4%. This unique blend is specifically designed to offer targeted relief for a range of oral conditions such as mouth ulcers, gum inflammation, and tooth sensitivity. It can also provide relief from headaches and muscle pain, thanks to the synergistic effect of Benzocaine and Caffeine.

Benzocaine, a topical anesthetic, functions by blocking nerve signals from reaching the brain, thereby providing temporary relief from pain. On the other hand, Caffeine, a known stimulant, aids in reducing inflammation and improving blood flow, offering additional pain relief. The combination of these two ingredients results in a fast-acting, long-lasting solution for various conditions.

This gel-like formulation is dispensed in a tube and is designed for easy application. It provides a smooth consistency, allowing for direct application to the affected areas for localized treatment. This ensures that the medication or soothing agents are delivered directly to the areas that need them the most, promoting improved oral health.

It is crucial to apply it directly to the affected area and allow it to absorb into the skin. Always follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider when using this product to ensure its effectiveness and your safety.

If you have any inquiries about this formulation or how it can help manage your condition, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy. We are committed to helping you find the most suitable solution for your needs.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Benzocaine 30%/Caffeine 0.4% Oral Gel is a specially formulated topical medication designed to provide targeted relief for a variety of oral conditions. This includes mouth ulcers, gum inflammation, tooth sensitivity, and other related discomforts. The gel is dispensed in a tube and is designed for easy application, ensuring a smooth consistency that allows for direct delivery of the medication to the affected areas.

The active ingredients in this formulation are benzocaine and caffeine. Benzocaine, a local anesthetic, works by blocking nerve signals from reaching the brain, effectively numbing the area and reducing pain. Caffeine, on the other hand, is an anti-inflammatory agent that helps to reduce swelling and inflammation, further contributing to the relief of discomfort.

When using Benzocaine 30%/Caffeine 0.4% Oral Gel, it is crucial to adhere to the directions provided by your healthcare provider. The gel should be applied directly to the affected area and gently massaged in until it is fully absorbed. It is important to avoid contact with the eyes, nose, and mouth. If the gel accidentally comes into contact with these areas, it should be rinsed off immediately with water.

However, it is essential to follow the directions provided by your healthcare provider to ensure optimal results. If you have any questions or concerns about using this medication, please do not hesitate to reach out to your healthcare provider or pharmacist.

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.
