Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present our compounded formulation of Ondansetron 20 mg/ml Topical Cream. This medication is specifically designed to alleviate symptoms associated with nausea and vomiting. Ondansetron is a potent antiemetic medication that functions by inhibiting the action of serotonin, a neurotransmitter in the brain that can trigger nausea and vomiting.

This topical cream formulation is intended to provide relief from a range of conditions including general nausea, vomiting, gastroparesis, chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, and radiation-induced nausea and vomiting. The topical application of Ondansetron offers a more direct route of administration compared to oral medications, making it an ideal choice for patients who may have difficulty swallowing or those who experience nausea or vomiting when taking oral medications.

The Ondansetron 20 mg/ml Topical Cream is dispensed in a pump mechanism, ensuring a convenient and controlled application on the skin for localized treatment or absorption of the active ingredients. This method of application not only enhances the ease of use but also has the potential to deliver more rapid relief from symptoms compared to oral medications.

At Bayview Pharmacy, our commitment is to provide our patients with the highest quality compounded medications. We understand that each patient's needs are unique, and we are here to help you find the best treatment option tailored to your individual requirements. If you have any queries about Ondansetron 20 mg/ml Topical Cream or any of our other compounded medications, please feel free to contact us. Your health and well-being are our top priority.

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.
