Other Uses

A small arrow pointing down

This compounded formulation of Sulfur 3%/Salicylic Acid 2%/Hydrocortisone 1% Topical Cream is a versatile treatment option for a range of skin conditions. It is a semisolid preparation dispensed in a pump mechanism, designed for convenient and controlled application on the skin.

Aside from treating specific skin conditions, this formulation also aids in reducing the appearance of scars, stretch marks, and other skin discolorations.

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.
