How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Salicylic Acid 27% Topical Gel is a potent medication designed to address a range of skin conditions such as acne, psoriasis, warts, and seborrheic dermatitis. This semisolid formulation is dispensed through a pump mechanism, which allows for easy and precise application on the skin, targeting the treatment area effectively. The gel-like consistency ensures optimal absorption of the active ingredients.

The medication functions by exfoliating the skin, eliminating dead skin cells, and reducing inflammation. It also aids in decreasing the production of sebum, a substance that can clog pores and contribute to acne. Upon application, Salicylic Acid 27% Topical Gel penetrates the skin, breaking down the bonds between cells and facilitating the shedding of dead skin cells. This process aids in reducing the visibility of acne, psoriasis, warts, and seborrheic dermatitis, while also helping to alleviate the redness and swelling associated with these conditions.

Salicylic Acid 27% Topical Gel should be applied to the affected area once or twice daily, depending on the severity of the condition. It is crucial to adhere to the instructions provided by your healthcare provider when using this medication. If you have any queries regarding the use of Salicylic Acid 27% Topical Gel, it is recommended to consult with 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.
