Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Chlorpheniramine Maleate 4 mg/Pseudoephedrine HCl 30 mg Capsules is a compounded formulation designed to alleviate symptoms associated with the common cold, allergies, and other respiratory conditions.

These capsules enclose the medication, facilitating easy swallowing and ensuring a precise dosage of the active ingredients.

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.
