Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specialized topical gel formulation of Podophyllum 10%/Benzocaine 4.75%. This unique compound is designed for the treatment of various types of warts, including genital warts, anal warts, plantar warts, perianal warts, and condylomata acuminata. The formulation combines two active ingredients, Podophyllum and Benzocaine, to provide a appropriate treatment option.

Podophyllum, a plant-derived compound with a long history of use in wart treatment, functions by disrupting the growth of the virus responsible for wart formation.

Benzocaine, an anesthetic, is included in the formulation to alleviate the pain and discomfort associated with warts. It operates by numbing the area surrounding the wart, thereby facilitating the easier application of the Podophyllum.

This Podophyllum and Benzocaine combination is a potent treatment for warts, suitable for use by both adults and children. It is crucial to adhere to the usage instructions provided by your healthcare provider when utilizing this formulation. For any queries or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy.

The formulation is a semisolid substance dispensed through a pump mechanism, which allows for easy and precise application on the skin. This targeted treatment ensures the active ingredients are absorbed effectively in a gel-like consistency, providing optimal results.

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.
