Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specially compounded topical gel formulation of Ketoprofen 10%/Gabapentin 5%. This unique formulation is specifically designed to alleviate pain and inflammation associated with various disease states. The synergistic effect of these two medications has proven to be effective in treating conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and neuropathic pain.

Ketoprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), functions by inhibiting the production of certain chemicals in the body that trigger inflammation and pain. On the other hand, Gabapentin, an anticonvulsant medication, operates by reducing the activity of specific nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. The combined effect of these two medications can significantly reduce pain and inflammation.

This compounded formulation is a semisolid substance dispensed through a pump mechanism, which allows for easy and precise application on the skin. The gel-like consistency ensures targeted treatment or absorption of the active ingredients. It can be used up to four times daily for optimal results. However, it is crucial to remember that this formulation should not be applied on broken or irritated skin. Additionally, patients with a history of gastrointestinal bleeding or ulcers should exercise caution while using this product.

If you have any queries about this formulation or how it can aid in treating your condition, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy. Our primary goal is to assist you in finding the most suitable treatment option for your specific needs.
