Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specially compounded topical gel formulation of Dapsone 5%/Naltrexone HCl 0.5%. This unique combination of medications has demonstrated efficacy in the treatment of various skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, and acne. The synergistic effect of Dapsone and Naltrexone HCl helps to alleviate inflammation, itching, and redness associated with these skin disorders.

The Dapsone component in this formulation functions by suppressing the production of leukotrienes, inflammatory mediators that can trigger skin irritation and inflammation. Conversely, Naltrexone HCl operates by obstructing the opioid receptors in the skin, thereby reducing itching and redness.

This topical gel formulation is a semisolid preparation dispensed through a pump mechanism, facilitating easy and precise application on the skin for targeted treatment or absorption of active ingredients. The gel-like consistency ensures a smooth application process, allowing the active ingredients to be effectively absorbed by the skin.

It can be applied up to twice daily for optimal results. However, it is crucial to note that this formulation should not be used on broken or irritated skin. Additionally, caution should be exercised when used by patients with a history of allergies or skin sensitivities.

If you have any queries about this formulation or its application in treating skin conditions, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy. We are committed to assisting you in finding the most suitable treatment option tailored to your individual 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.
