Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant that works by blocking nerve impulses (or pain sensations) that are sent to your brain. It is commonly used to treat muscle spasms and pain. Ketoprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that reduces hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body. It is used to treat mild to moderate pain, or inflammation caused by arthritis. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic that works by causing temporary numbness/loss of feeling in the skin and mucous membranes. It is used to relieve pain and discomfort from various conditions such as skin irritations and minor burns.
Together, these three active ingredients provide a comprehensive approach to pain management. The Cyclobenzaprine relaxes the muscles, the Ketoprofen reduces inflammation, and the Lidocaine provides immediate, localized pain relief.

This formulation contains three active ingredients: Cyclobenzaprine, Ketoprofen, and Lidocaine. Each of these ingredients can interact with other medications, potentially altering their effects or increasing the risk of adverse reactions.
Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant that works by blocking nerve impulses (or pain sensations) that are sent to your brain. It can interact with monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), increasing the risk of serious side effects such as high fever, severe headache, stiff muscles, and confusion. It can also interact with other central nervous system depressants, including alcohol, antihistamines, sedatives, and narcotics, potentially leading to increased sedation and respiratory depression.
Ketoprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that reduces hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body. It can interact with blood thinners, such as warfarin, increasing the risk of bleeding. It can also interact with other NSAIDs, corticosteroids, and alcohol, increasing the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. Additionally, it can interact with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), or diuretics, potentially reducing their effectiveness.
Lidocaine is a local anesthetic that works by blocking nerve signals in your body. It can interact with other local anesthetics, potentially leading to increased systemic absorption and toxicity. It can also interact with antiarrhythmic drugs, such as mexiletine and tocainide, potentially altering their effects.
This formulation is designed to treat a variety of disease states. Cyclobenzaprine can help to relieve muscle spasms associated with acute musculoskeletal conditions. Ketoprofen can help to reduce pain and inflammation associated with conditions such as arthritis, bursitis, and tendonitis. Lidocaine can help to provide local anesthesia, relieving pain and discomfort associated with conditions such as postherpetic neuralgia or other types of nerve pain.
It's important to inform your healthcare provider of all the medications you are currently taking, including prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, vitamins, and herbal supplements, to avoid potential drug interactions. If you have any questions about this formulation or its potential interactions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at Bayview Pharmacy.

The Cyclobenzaprine 5%/Ketoprofen 10%/Lidocaine 5% Transdermal Gel is a unique formulation that combines the therapeutic benefits of three active ingredients. This semisolid formulation is dispensed through a pump mechanism, which allows for easy and precise application on the skin. The gel-like consistency ensures that the active ingredients are absorbed directly into the targeted area, providing localized relief.
Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant that works by blocking nerve impulses (or pain sensations) that are sent to your brain. When applied topically in a gel form, cyclobenzaprine can provide targeted relief to the affected area.
Ketoprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body. It is commonly used to relieve pain, swelling, and joint stiffness caused by arthritis. In this formulation, ketoprofen is absorbed through the skin directly into the affected area, providing localized anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.
Lidocaine is a local anesthetic that works by causing temporary numbness/loss of feeling in the skin and mucous membranes. It does this by blocking the nerve signals in your body. When applied topically, lidocaine can provide rapid, localized pain relief.
Together, these three active ingredients work synergistically to provide relief from various disease states. The muscle relaxant properties of cyclobenzaprine, the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of ketoprofen, and the anesthetic properties of lidocaine can effectively treat conditions such as muscle spasms, arthritis, and other sources of pain and inflammation. The transdermal gel formulation allows for targeted treatment, reducing the potential for systemic side effects and providing rapid relief at the site of application.

While primarily prescribed for management of pain and inflammation associated with conditions like arthritis, sprains, and strains, the cyclobenzaprine 5%/ketoprofen 10%/lidocaine 5% transdermal gel is remarkably versatile. This formulation can serve other important roles in patient care due to its unique composition of active ingredients. Cyclobenzaprine, a muscle relaxant, can be used to relieve muscle spasms resulting from injuries such as sprains and strains. On the other hand, lidocaine, a local anesthetic, can be beneficial in alleviating nerve pain including post-shingles neuralgia. Further, it may provide symptomatic relief in certain skin conditions associated with pain and itch, such as bug bites, minor burns, or sunburns.
In addition to these, the anti-inflammatory component, ketoprofen, may help reduce inflammation and associated pain in a multitude of conditions including gouty arthritis, bursitis, tendinitis, and may even show therapeutic effects in soft tissue injuries. It is important to note that while this gel provides localized therapy, it isn't suitable for open wounds or broken skin. Lastly, remember that while this formulation can address symptomatic relief, it does not treat the underlying cause of the medical condition hence should not replace necessary medical intervention.
Utilization of this formulation is patient specific and largely depends on the clinical scenario and the prescriber’s judgment. In all cases, monitoring should be maintained by the healthcare provider, reviewing the patient’s response, and making necessary adjustments. It should be used under the supervision of a healthcare professional and potential side-effects or allergy manifestations should be reported immediately.
So, while the cyclobenzaprine 5%/ketoprofen 10%/lidocaine 5% transdermal gel offers robust therapeutic properties, it is always essential to use it under proper medical guidance. It's also key to ensure its use is appropriate for the specific health needs of the patient. Should you have any other questions or require further information about this, or any formulation, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. As a team of experienced, compounding pharmacists, we're here to support you, clarifying any doubts and providing comprehensive advice to both prescribers and patients.
This is a compounded medication that combines Cyclobenzaprine, Ketoprofen, and Lidocaine in a 5%/10%/5% concentration, respectively. It is formulated into a gel that is dispensed through a pump to easily apply to the skin for targeted treatment or absorption.
Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant that works by blocking nerve impulses that you perceive as pain. Ketoprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug that reduces substances in the body that cause inflammation. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic that works by causing temporary numbness or loss of sensation in the area of your body where you apply the cream. The combination of these three drugs helps manage pain and inflammation.
Use the pump to dispense an appropriate amount of medication and apply it to the skin area in pain. Follow the exact dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider. Wash your hands thoroughly after applying unless the treated skin part is your hand.
You should only apply the gel to the area of discomfort unless otherwise directed by your doctor. Avoid application to open wounds, burns, or the eyes.
If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule.
You may not feel immediate relief after the first few applications. The reaction to the medication varies among individuals. Keep using the gel as directed and let your healthcare provider know if your condition does not improve or if it worsens.
Although rare, serious allergic reactions may occur. Stop using the medication and seek immediate medical attention if you notice symptoms like rash, itching/swelling (particularly of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, or trouble breathing.
The gel should be stored at room temperature, away from heat and light. Keep the container tightly closed when not in use.
Always inform your doctor about any other medications you are currently using to prevent any drug interactions. Do not mix the gel with other topical creams without consulting your healthcare provider.
If you are pregnant, planning to get pregnant, or breastfeeding, inform your doctor before using the gel. The effects of the medications in this gel on the fetus or nursing baby are unknown.
