While Clindamycin 1%/Betamethasone Valerate 0.1% Topical Solution is generally considered a appropriate treatment for bacterial and inflammatory skin conditions, it's important to discuss potential side effects with your healthcare provider before starting treatment. This ensures that you are fully informed and can make the best decision for your health.

If you have any questions or concerns about this formulation, we encourage you to reach out to your healthcare provider or pharmacist. They can provide additional information and guidance based on your specific condition and treatment needs.

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.
