Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy's Coal Tar Topical Solution 3%/Clioquinol 1%/Hydrocortisone 1% Topical Lotion is a specially compounded medication designed to address a range of skin conditions. This unique formulation brings together three potent active ingredients, each with its own therapeutic properties, to provide comprehensive relief from the itching, inflammation, and scaling symptoms commonly associated with psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, and eczema.

Coal tar, one of the active ingredients, is a well-known anti-inflammatory and antipruritic agent. It works by alleviating itching and reducing inflammation, providing much-needed relief for irritated skin. Clioquinol, another active ingredient, is an antifungal agent that effectively reduces scaling and flaking, common symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis and eczema. The third active ingredient, Hydrocortisone, is a corticosteroid that further aids in reducing inflammation and itching, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the formulation.

This topical lotion is designed as a liquid or semi-liquid formulation for external application to the skin. It offers a smooth and spreadable consistency, making it easy to apply on the face, scalp, and other affected areas of the body. In addition to its therapeutic effects, this formulation also provides moisturizing and soothing benefits, promoting healthier skin while ensuring optimal absorption of the active ingredients for localized treatment.

It is crucial to note that this formulation should not be applied to broken or infected skin. Always ensure to follow the recommended usage instructions or those provided by your healthcare professional. If you have any questions or concerns about this formulation or its application, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy.

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.
