Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specially compounded topical gel formulation of Ketamine HCl 10%/Amitriptyline HCl 5%. This unique formulation is specifically designed to provide targeted relief from a range of chronic pain conditions, including neuropathic pain, fibromyalgia, migraines, and complex regional pain syndrome.
Ketamine, a well-established anesthetic agent, has been utilized in clinical settings for many years. Amitriptyline, a tricyclic antidepressant, has demonstrated efficacy in treating neuropathic pain, fibromyalgia, and migraines.
The innovative combination of these two medications in a topical gel formulation allows for the direct delivery of both medications to the pain site. This targeted approach to pain relief is facilitated by the gel's semisolid formulation, which is dispensed through a pump mechanism for easy and precise application. The gel-like consistency ensures optimal absorption of the active ingredients.
Furthermore, the topical gel formulation significantly reduces the risk of systemic side effects often associated with oral medications. This makes it an excellent treatment option for patients suffering from chronic pain, neuropathic pain, fibromyalgia, migraines, and complex regional pain syndrome.
If you have any questions or require further information about this unique compounded formulation, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy.
