How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) 15 mg/0.25 ml Topical Cream is a specially formulated prescription medication designed to address a range of conditions. These include skin disorders, hormone imbalances, and symptoms associated with menopause. The cream is applied directly to the skin, where it works by supplying the body with a natural hormone that aids in regulating hormone levels.

Upon application, DHEA is absorbed through the skin and enters the bloodstream. Once in the bloodstream, it is converted into other hormones, such as testosterone and estrogen. These hormones play a crucial role in maintaining hormonal balance in the body. This balance can help alleviate symptoms linked to hormonal imbalances, such as hot flashes, night sweats, and mood swings. Additionally, it can help manage skin conditions like acne, psoriasis, and eczema.

To use DHEA 15 mg/0.25 ml Topical Cream, apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected skin area once or twice daily, or as directed by your healthcare provider. Gently massage the cream into the skin until it is fully absorbed. Unless instructed by your doctor, avoid covering the area with a bandage or other coverings.

It is crucial to adhere to your doctor's instructions when using DHEA 15 mg/0.25 ml Topical Cream. Do not use more or less of the medication than prescribed, and do not use it for a longer duration than recommended. If you have any queries about how to use this medication, it is advisable to consult with 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.
