Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

This compounded formulation of Pentoxifylline 10% Topical Gel is a semisolid preparation designed for easy and precise application on the skin. It is dispensed through a pump mechanism, which allows for targeted treatment or absorption of the active ingredients. The gel-like consistency ensures that the medication is evenly distributed over the affected area.

Pentoxifylline 10% Topical Gel is indicated for the treatment of various skin conditions including Eczema, Psoriasis, Dermatitis, Acne, and Rosacea. Pentoxifylline, the active ingredient in this formulation, is a vasodilator that works by increasing blood flow to the affected area. This action helps to reduce inflammation and itching, providing relief from the symptoms of these skin conditions.

In addition to its vasodilatory effects, Pentoxifylline also helps to reduce the production of inflammatory cytokines. These are substances that can exacerbate skin conditions by promoting inflammation. By reducing the production of these cytokines, Pentoxifylline can help to alleviate the severity of skin conditions.

It should be used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan, in conjunction with other treatments as recommended by your healthcare provider.

Some individuals may experience skin irritation when using Pentoxifylline 10% Topical Gel. It is important to monitor for any signs of irritation while using this medication. If any irritation occurs, discontinue use and contact your healthcare provider immediately.

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.
