Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specialized topical gel formulation that combines Gabapentin 10%, Ketoprofen 5%, Acyclovir 2%, Amitriptyline HCl 2%, and Tetracaine 1%. This unique blend is designed to address a range of conditions, including neuropathic pain, inflammation, and viral infections, offering targeted treatment through a convenient and precise application.
Gabapentin, an anticonvulsant medication, is commonly used to manage neuropathic pain and seizures. It works by reducing abnormal electrical activity in the brain, thereby alleviating pain and discomfort.
Acyclovir, an antiviral medication, is used to treat infections caused by the herpes simplex virus, including cold sores, genital herpes, and shingles. It works by slowing the growth and spread of the virus in the body, allowing the immune system to combat the infection more effectively. Amitriptyline HCl, a tricyclic antidepressant, is used to treat depression and chronic pain. It increases the levels of certain chemicals in the brain that help improve mood, reduce pain, and promote sleep.
Tetracaine, a local anesthetic, is used to numb the skin and reduce pain. It works by blocking nerve signals in your body, providing temporary relief from discomfort and pain. This topical gel formulation, with its gel-like consistency, is dispensed through a pump mechanism, ensuring easy and precise application on the skin for targeted treatment.
Its ease of application and rapid action make it a preferred choice for many patients. If you have any queries about this formulation or how it can be used to manage your condition, please do not hesitate to contact us.

The combination of Acyclovir and Amitriptyline HCl may increase the risk of serotonin syndrome. Therefore, caution should be used in patients taking other medications that increase serotonin levels. The combination of Gabapentin and Tetracaine may increase the risk of neurotoxicity, so caution should be used in patients with a history of neurological disorders or those taking medications that affect the central nervous system.

This compounded formulation is a topical gel that combines five active ingredients: Gabapentin 10%, Ketoprofen 5%, Acyclovir 2%, Amitriptyline HCl 2%, and Tetracaine 1%. Each ingredient plays a crucial role in treating various conditions, including pain, inflammation, and viral infections.
Gabapentin, an anticonvulsant, is primarily used to manage neuropathic pain. It functions by blocking specific nerve signals in the brain, thereby reducing pain sensations. Ketoprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), is utilized to alleviate inflammation and pain. It operates by inhibiting the production of certain body chemicals that trigger inflammation.
Acyclovir, an antiviral medication, is employed to combat viral infections such as herpes and shingles. It functions by inhibiting the virus from replicating and spreading. Amitriptyline HCl, an antidepressant, is used to treat depression and other mood disorders. It works by elevating the levels of certain chemicals in the brain, thereby improving mood.
Tetracaine, a local anesthetic, is used to numb the skin and mitigate pain. It operates by blocking the transmission of nerve signals to the brain, thereby reducing pain sensations. This topical gel should be applied to the affected area as per the doctor's instructions. It is crucial to adhere to the instructions meticulously and avoid applying more than the recommended amount.

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.
