Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Phenoxybenzamine HCl 2 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a specially compounded medication designed to treat a range of conditions such as hypertension, urinary retention, and Raynaud's phenomenon. This medication functions as a non-selective alpha-adrenergic antagonist, which means it works by blocking the action of certain hormones in the body. The result of this action is a decrease in blood pressure and an increase in urine flow, which can help alleviate the symptoms of the aforementioned conditions.

This medication is available in an oral suspension form, a liquid dosage form in which one or more ingredients are dispersed uniformly throughout a liquid medium. This form provides a homogeneous mixture for administration, making it easy to take. It can be consumed with or without food, according to the patient's preference or as directed by the healthcare provider.

Patients taking Phenoxybenzamine HCl 2 mg/ml Oral Suspension should adhere strictly to the instructions provided by their healthcare provider. Common side effects associated with this medication include dizziness, headache, nausea, and dry mouth. It is crucial for patients to communicate with their healthcare provider if they experience any of these side effects, or if they have any questions or concerns about the medication.

It is essential to monitor patients closely for any adverse effects and to adjust the dosage as necessary. For any queries about this formulation or its use, please feel free to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Phenoxybenzamine HCl 2 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a compounded medication used in the treatment of various conditions such as hypertension, urinary retention, and Raynaud's phenomenon. This medication functions by inhibiting the action of certain chemicals in the body, like norepinephrine, which can cause blood vessels to constrict and result in high blood pressure. Additionally, it relaxes the muscles in the bladder, facilitating easier urination. In the case of Raynaud's phenomenon, it aids in reducing the frequency and severity of spasms in the blood vessels of the fingers and toes.

This medication is dispensed as an oral suspension, a liquid form of the drug that is ingested orally. It is typically administered twice daily, and can be taken with or without food. It is crucial to adhere to the dosage prescribed by your healthcare provider. Avoid taking more or less than the recommended dose, and do not discontinue its use without consulting your doctor.

While taking Phenoxybenzamine HCl 2 mg/ml Oral Suspension, if you experience any side effects such as dizziness, nausea, or headache, it is important to 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.
