How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Salicylic Acid 40% Topical Peel Gel is a potent dermatological solution designed to address a range of skin conditions such as acne, psoriasis, and seborrheic dermatitis. The primary active ingredient, salicylic acid, is a keratolytic agent renowned for its ability to alleviate inflammation and promote skin exfoliation. It functions by dissolving the bonds between dead skin cells, facilitating their easy removal and thereby reducing the visibility of blemishes and other skin imperfections. Salicylic acid also possesses anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, which contribute to the reduction of redness and irritation.

When utilizing Salicylic Acid 40% Topical Peel Gel, adherence to the instructions provided by your healthcare provider or pharmacist is crucial. The gel is typically applied to the affected area once or twice daily, depending on the severity of the skin condition. It is imperative to avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, and other mucous membranes during application. In case of accidental contact, thoroughly rinse the area with copious amounts of water. Additionally, refrain from applying the gel on broken or irritated skin to prevent exacerbation of the condition.

While Salicylic Acid 40% Topical Peel Gel is generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience mild skin irritation or a burning sensation.

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.
