Hydrocortisone Acetate 2.5%/Neomycin 3.5 mg/Gm Topical Cream is a compounded formulation designed to treat a variety of skin conditions. This medication combines the anti-inflammatory properties of hydrocortisone acetate, a corticosteroid, with the antibacterial action of neomycin, an antibiotic. The hydrocortisone acetate works to alleviate inflammation and irritation on the skin, while the neomycin targets and eliminates bacteria that can lead to infection.

It is dispensed in a semisolid preparation via a pump mechanism, which allows for convenient and controlled application on the skin for localized treatment or absorption of the active ingredients.

When using Hydrocortisone Acetate 2.5%/Neomycin 3.5 mg/Gm Topical Cream, it is crucial to adhere to the instructions provided by your healthcare provider. The cream should be applied to the affected skin area as directed. Prior to application, ensure your hands are clean to prevent further infection.

For optimal results, it is important to use Hydrocortisone Acetate 2.5%/Neomycin 3.5 mg/Gm Topical Cream for the full course of treatment as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Discontinuing the medication before the end of the prescribed course, even if symptoms improve, may not fully treat the condition and could lead to its recurrence.

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.
