Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Buprenorphine 0.3 mg/0.1 ml Topical Gel (Vet) is a specially compounded medication designed for veterinary use. It is primarily used to alleviate pain, arthritis, osteoarthritis, inflammation, and dyspnea in animals. This semisolid formulation is dispensed through a pump mechanism, which allows for easy and precise application on the skin. The active ingredient, Buprenorphine, is absorbed through the skin, targeting the affected area directly.

Buprenorphine is an opioid agonist that works by binding to opioid receptors in the body. This action provides analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects, offering relief from pain and inflammation. Additionally, Buprenorphine is known to reduce dyspnea, or shortness of breath, by relaxing the airways and reducing inflammation.

The gel-like consistency of this formulation ensures it adheres well to the skin, allowing for optimal absorption of the active ingredient.

It is crucial to understand that this formulation should only be used under the supervision of a veterinarian. It is not intended for human use. Misuse can lead to serious health consequences. Always consult with a veterinarian before starting any new medication regimen for your pet.

If you have any questions about Buprenorphine 0.3 mg/0.1 ml Topical Gel (Vet) or how it can be used to treat various conditions in animals, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy. Our team of compounding pharmacists is well-equipped to provide the information and guidance you need.

Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

Buprenorphine 0.3 mg/0.1 ml Topical Gel (Vet) is a specialized compounded formulation designed to provide targeted relief for a variety of conditions in animals. This includes pain, arthritis, osteoarthritis, inflammation, and dyspnea. The active ingredient, buprenorphine, works by blocking the pain signals sent to the brain, thereby reducing inflammation and providing relief from dyspnea.

Research has demonstrated the effectiveness of buprenorphine in reducing pain and inflammation associated with arthritis and osteoarthritis. It has also been shown to provide relief from dyspnea, a condition characterized by difficult or labored breathing. However, it is crucial to note that buprenorphine should not be used in patients with a history of opioid abuse or addiction. It should also be avoided in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to buprenorphine or any of its components.

Patients should be closely monitored for signs of opioid overdose, which can include symptoms such as respiratory depression, sedation, and coma. If any of these signs are present, the patient should be immediately evaluated and treated. Furthermore, buprenorphine should not be used in combination with other opioid medications, as this may increase the risk of overdose.

It is always recommended to consult with a veterinary professional before starting any new medication regimen. If you have any questions about the use of Buprenorphine 0.3 mg/0.1 ml Topical Gel (Vet) for the treatment of pain, arthritis, osteoarthritis, inflammation, and dyspnea, please consult with 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.
