Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy's Clindamycin 1 mg/Gm/Gentamicin 1 mg/Gm/Polymyxin B 2,000 U/Gm Topical Gel is a specially compounded medication designed to treat a variety of skin conditions. This unique formulation combines the power of three active ingredients: clindamycin, gentamicin, and polymyxin B, each contributing to a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity.

Clindamycin is an antibiotic that functions by inhibiting the growth of bacteria. Gentamicin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic, disrupts bacterial cell wall synthesis, thereby preventing the bacteria from multiplying. Polymyxin B, a polypeptide antibiotic, disrupts the cell membrane of bacteria, leading to bacterial cell death.

This compounded formulation is dispensed as a semisolid gel through a pump mechanism, facilitating easy and precise application on the skin. This allows for targeted treatment or absorption of the active ingredients directly at the site of infection. The gel-like consistency ensures that the medication stays on the skin for a longer duration, thereby enhancing its effectiveness.

It is crucial to follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider when using this medication. This medication should not be used for more than two weeks without consulting your healthcare provider. Overuse or misuse of antibiotics can lead to antibiotic resistance, which can make future infections harder to treat.

If you have any questions about Bayview Pharmacy's Clindamycin 1 mg/Gm/Gentamicin 1 mg/Gm/Polymyxin B 2,000 U/Gm Topical Gel, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We are committed to providing you with the highest quality of care and service.

Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

This topical gel formulation of Clindamycin 1 mg/Gm, Gentamicin 1 mg/Gm, and Polymyxin B 2,000 U/Gm is a semisolid formulation dispensed through a pump mechanism, facilitating easy and precise application on the skin. It is specifically designed for targeted treatment or absorption of active ingredients in a gel-like consistency. This formulation is indicated for the treatment of bacterial skin infections, including impetigo, folliculitis, and furunculosis. It is also used for the treatment of secondary bacterial infections of minor cuts, abrasions, and burns.

Patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of the components of the gel should not use this formulation. It is also contraindicated in patients with a history of renal impairment or in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to other aminoglycosides. Patients should avoid contact with the eyes and mucous membranes while using this formulation. If contact occurs, the area should be flushed with water immediately.

It is important to use this formulation for the full course of treatment, even if symptoms improve. Discontinuing the medication too soon may result in the infection returning. Any signs of local irritation, such as redness, itching, or burning, should be reported to the healthcare provider immediately. Patients should also avoid using other topical medications while using this formulation, as this may increase the risk of local irritation.

If you have any questions about this formulation or its use, please reach out to your healthcare provider for further guidance and information.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Clindamycin 1 mg/Gm/Gentamicin 1 mg/Gm/Polymyxin B 2,000 U/Gm Topical Gel is a compounded formulation that combines three potent antibiotics to effectively treat bacterial skin infections. This unique blend of Clindamycin, Gentamicin, and Polymyxin B works synergistically to inhibit bacterial growth and disrupt essential bacterial functions, thereby aiding in the eradication of the infection.

Clindamycin is an antibiotic that functions by halting the growth of bacteria, while Gentamicin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic, interferes with the production of proteins that the bacteria need to survive. Polymyxin B, a polypeptide antibiotic, disrupts the bacterial cell membrane, further inhibiting the bacteria's ability to function and survive.

This topical gel is designed for direct application to the affected skin area. It is crucial to adhere to the instructions provided by your healthcare provider when using this medication. Typically, the gel should be applied to the infected area two to three times daily. Hand hygiene is essential before and after the application of the gel. Unless advised by your healthcare provider, the treated area should not be covered with a bandage or any other covering.

Clindamycin 1 mg/Gm/Gentamicin 1 mg/Gm/Polymyxin B 2,000 U/Gm Topical Gel is indicated for the treatment of bacterial skin infections such as impetigo, folliculitis, and furunculosis.

If you have any queries or concerns about Clindamycin 1 mg/Gm/Gentamicin 1 mg/Gm/Polymyxin B 2,000 U/Gm Topical Gel, do not hesitate to reach out. We are here to assist you in understanding how this medication works and how it can help manage your bacterial skin infection.

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.
