This topical gel is dispensed through a pump mechanism, which facilitates easy and precise application on the skin. It is crucial to follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider when using this medication. The medication should be applied evenly on the affected area, avoiding contact with the eyes, mouth, and other mucous membranes. It is also recommended to wash your hands thoroughly after applying the medication to prevent accidental spread to other areas.

Typically, this formulation is used twice daily or as directed by your healthcare provider. It is essential to complete the full course of treatment, even if symptoms improve, to ensure the condition is fully addressed and to prevent recurrence. If you have any questions or concerns about how to use this medication, it is advised to consult with your healthcare provider for further guidance.

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.
