This unique formulation brings together two potent non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), ketoprofen and ibuprofen, to create a synergistic effect that effectively reduces inflammation and pain.

This topical gel is a semisolid formulation that is dispensed through a pump mechanism, facilitating easy and precise application on the skin. This allows for targeted treatment or absorption of the active ingredients directly into the affected area. The gel-like consistency ensures that the medication is absorbed through the skin, providing localized relief without systemic side effects.

It is crucial to note that Ketoprofen 10%/Ibuprofen 2.5% Topical Gel should not be applied to open wounds or areas of skin that are broken or irritated. Additionally, care should be taken to avoid contact with the eyes and mucous membranes. This is to prevent any potential irritation or adverse reactions.

Ketoprofen 10%/Ibuprofen 2.5% Topical Gel is a appropriate treatment option for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Ketoprofen 10%/Ibuprofen 2.5% Topical Gel is a compounded formulation that combines two potent nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), Ketoprofen and Ibuprofen. This unique blend is designed to alleviate pain and inflammation, particularly in cases of mild to moderate musculoskeletal conditions such as arthritis, tendinitis, bursitis, and other joint and muscle pain.

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.
