Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specialized topical gel formulation that combines Ketoprofen 5%, Lidocaine HCl 5%, Bupivacaine HCl 1%, and Cyclobenzaprine HCl 0.5%. This unique blend is specifically designed to alleviate a range of painful conditions, such as muscle spasms, joint pain, and inflammation. The synergistic effect of these active ingredients allows for a more potent pain relief than any single ingredient could provide on its own.

Ketoprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), functions by inhibiting the production of certain chemicals in the body that trigger inflammation and pain. Lidocaine HCl, a local anesthetic, operates by blocking nerve signals in the affected area, offering temporary pain relief. Bupivacaine HCl, another local anesthetic, provides a longer-lasting pain relief compared to lidocaine. Lastly, Cyclobenzaprine HCl, a muscle relaxant, works by blocking nerve signals that instigate muscle spasms, thus providing relief from muscle pain and stiffness.

This compounded formulation is dispensed as a semisolid through a pump mechanism, which facilitates easy and precise application on the skin. The gel-like consistency allows for targeted treatment and efficient absorption of the active ingredients. This topical gel formulation is an effective solution for a variety of painful conditions, offering fast-acting relief from discomfort and pain.

If you have any inquiries about this formulation or how it can assist in treating your condition, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy. We are committed to providing comprehensive information and guidance to help you understand the potential benefits of this unique compounded formulation.
