How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) 100 mg/Gm Topical Gel is a potent medication designed to address a range of conditions, including skin disorders, hormonal imbalances, and symptoms associated with menopause. This semisolid formulation is dispensed through a pump mechanism, ensuring easy and accurate application on the skin for targeted treatment or absorption of active ingredients.

When applied topically, DHEA is absorbed through the skin and enters the bloodstream. It then transforms into other hormones, such as testosterone and estrogen, which play a crucial role in regulating hormonal levels in the body. This regulation can alleviate symptoms linked to hormonal imbalances, such as hot flashes, night sweats, and mood swings.

In addition to its hormonal benefits, DHEA 100 mg/Gm Topical Gel can also be used to treat various skin conditions, including acne, psoriasis, and eczema. It has the potential to reduce inflammation and redness, as well as enhance the overall appearance of the skin.

When using DHEA 100 mg/Gm Topical Gel, it is crucial to adhere to the instructions provided by your healthcare provider or pharmacist. The gel should be applied to the affected skin area once or twice daily, depending on the severity of the condition. It is important to avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, and other mucous membranes to prevent irritation or adverse reactions.

If you have any queries or concerns about using DHEA 100 mg/Gm Topical Gel, don't hesitate to reach out to your healthcare provider.

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.
