Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Papaverine 15% Topical Gel is a specially compounded medication designed to address a range of conditions such as Erectile Dysfunction, Peyronie's Disease, Priapism, Raynaud's Syndrome, and Vascular Insufficiency. This semisolid formulation is dispensed through a pump mechanism, which allows for easy and precise application on the skin.

When applied topically to the affected area, the medication works by relaxing the smooth muscles of the penis, thereby enhancing blood flow and improving erectile function. The gel is also beneficial for those suffering from Raynaud's Syndrome, a condition characterized by coldness and numbness in the extremities, as it helps to alleviate these symptoms.

Furthermore, Papaverine 15% Topical Gel can be used to treat Peyronie's Disease, a condition that results in an abnormal bend or curve in the penis.

Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

Papaverine 15% Topical Gel is a specially formulated treatment for a variety of conditions including Erectile Dysfunction, Peyronie's Disease, Priapism, Raynaud's Syndrome, and Vascular Insufficiency. The active ingredient, Papaverine, is a potent vasodilator that functions by relaxing the smooth muscles in the penis, thereby enhancing blood flow and improving erectile function.

This topical gel may also be beneficial for individuals suffering from Raynaud's Syndrome, as it works to improve blood flow to the affected areas. For those diagnosed with Peyronie's Disease, Papaverine 15% Topical Gel can help reduce the curvature of the penis, providing relief and improving sexual function.

In cases of Priapism, this gel can help reduce the duration and severity of the erection, providing much-needed relief. Additionally, it can be used to treat Vascular Insufficiency by improving blood flow to the affected areas, thereby enhancing overall vascular health.

It is crucial to note that Papaverine 15% Topical Gel should not be used in conjunction with other vasodilators or medications that may interact with it. Always consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication or treatment. If you have any questions or concerns about the use of Papaverine 15% Topical Gel, please consult with a healthcare provider.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Papaverine 15% Topical Gel is a semisolid formulation that is dispensed through a pump mechanism, facilitating easy and precise application on the skin for targeted treatment. This medication is used to treat a variety of conditions, including erectile dysfunction, Peyronie's disease, priapism, Raynaud's syndrome, and vascular insufficiency.

For erectile dysfunction, Papaverine 15% Topical Gel works by relaxing the smooth muscles of the penis, allowing for increased blood flow and improved erectile function. It is applied directly to the penis and is absorbed through the skin. It is important to note that this medication should not be used more than once a day, and should not be used in combination with other medications or supplements.

In the treatment of Peyronie's disease, a condition in which the penis is curved due to scar tissue, Papaverine 15% Topical Gel can help to reduce the curvature of the penis and improve erectile function.

Papaverine 15% Topical Gel is also used to treat priapism, a condition in which the penis remains erect for an extended period of time. This medication helps to reduce the duration of the erection and improve erectile function.

For Raynaud's syndrome, a condition in which the blood vessels in the fingers and toes become constricted, leading to numbness and pain, Papaverine 15% Topical Gel helps to relax the blood vessels, allowing for improved blood flow and relief of symptoms.

Finally, in the treatment of vascular insufficiency, a condition in which the blood vessels are not able to adequately supply the body with oxygen and nutrients, Papaverine 15% Topical Gel helps to relax the blood vessels, allowing for improved blood flow and relief of symptoms.

If you have any questions about Papaverine 15% Topical Gel or how it works, please reach out to your healthcare provider or pharmacist.

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.
